What should you do if you encounter a vehicle approaching you with its high beam headlights on?

Flash your high beams to signal the driver to lower theirs.
Look away from the lights and focus on the right side of the road.
Slow down and pull over to the side until the vehicle passes.
Adjust your rear-view mirror to minimize the glare.

The correct answer is: Look away from the lights and focus on the right side of the road.

When encountering a vehicle approaching you with its high beam headlights on, it is important to first stay calm and focused. Option A suggests flashing your high beams to signal the driver to lower theirs, but this can often come across as aggressive and may escalate the situation. Option C suggests slowing down and pulling over to the side until the vehicle passes, which can be dangerous if you are on a busy road or highway. Similarly, option D suggests adjusting your rear-view mirror to minimize the glare, but this does not solve the issue of the blinding high beams. It is best to look away from the lights and focus on the right side of the road until the vehicle passes, allowing you to maintain control while avoiding the glare.
