Clouded headlights
One motorist in three is driving with worn-out headlights!
Have you checked your headlights?
CAA-Quebec’s Mobility Advisory Services specialists confirm it. A significant number of motorists drive around with opaque headlight lenses, which significantly reduces their visibility.
Clear headlights enable a driver to see an obstacle about 60m sooner. At 40km/h, that means 6 seconds more reaction time and, possibly, avoiding a collision. Watch our video on the issue of clouded headlights. (In French only)
