I don't see there where it says so? I'm not meeting other traffic on a motorway - if I was I'd be more worried about what they're doing on my side of the road!! Remember that there is almost always hedging of some description in the middle of the motorway. If there was no hedging (such as the 3 lane part of the N7) then I'd put my dips on.
I will put my lights on full beam if I'm on a motorway at night and there are no cars in front of my (heading in my direction). If there are cars on the other side of the motorway coming in the opposite direction I don't dip - why should I? They're 3 lanes (plus the barrier in the middle) between us so it's not like I'd be blinding them.
Where did my last reply go? Has someone deleted it? And to St. Bernard (ironic title for someone so judgmental) take your high horse somewhere else where you can back up such argument with facts.
Caveat my previous reply was to confirm that I have never been flashed by a driver coming in the opposite direction on a stretch of motorway with hedges in between (as stated the times I would consider putting on full beams)!
so all drivers are below these hedges, have you ever heard of a lorry ???
As I said I've never been flashed yet so I can't be all that bad now can I?
Lads (Ron and "St") are you lorry drivers? If so have you been blinded by this type of scenario? If so have you flashed the driver to let them know? As I said I've never been flashed yet so I can't be all that bad now can I?
You blind drivers in lorries and 4x4 so what is your position now ???
Sigh. Ron first off it's a bit much taking criticism on driving etiquette from someone who advocates driving in the middle of three lanes as being correct even if the left hand lane is empty! As I already stated, I have yet to be flashed by anyone in the places where I put my full beams on so obviously I don't believe that I have blinded anyone. If anyone was to blind me with full beams I'd be letting them know about it (unlike St. B I'm able to maintain control of my car when someone is approaching on a motorway with full beams on).

If you don't remember Ron I started the thread in which you espoused your views on middle lane driving! Oh and it's not me who is making the personal attacks I think you'll find! And what part of the below did not answer your question?
Lads I'm giving up now, you obviously have a picture of some crazy law breaker driving along with full beams leaving a trail of smashed cars on the other side of the motorway in his wake and there is nothing I can say to convince you otherwise. I remain satisfied that I'm a considerate and safe driver no matter what you try and portray me as.
