Me enseñaron cuando aprendí a conducir (a principios de los años 60) que si te deslumbran las luces de los coches que vienen en sentido contrario por la noche, siempre debes mirar hacia donde tus propias luces bajas iluminan el borde del lado izquierdo de la carretera y, en ningún caso, mirar directamente hacia las luces que se acercan. Sigo considerando que ese es un buen consejo.
