Correct answer
Replace main beam with dipped beam before dazzling the driver.
Dip as soon as you recognise a possibility of dazzling, without waiting until you draw alongside. Subsequently, use of dipped or main beam depends on road lighting, speed and the possibility of dazzling others. There is no universal requirement to keep dipped beam throughout every night-time overtake regardless of conditions.
