Correct answer
When there is a risk of dazzling and when driving within a built-up area.
When there is a risk of dazzling any road user and when driving within a built-up area, where dipped beam applies. Also avoid dazzling drivers ahead through their mirrors. Outside built-up areas on insufficiently lit sections, main-beam use depends on Articles 100–102. Permitted brief light warnings are a separate case and must not dazzle.
