Does having the headlight beam adjustment set too low affect safety?

Correct answer

Yes, it takes longer to notice an obstacle on the road.

Yes. Headlamps aimed too low reduce the lit area and can delay obstacle detection. Aiming too high can dazzle other users. Adjust headlamps according to manufacturer instructions and vehicle load; have them checked if they do not work correctly.
