Whenever a motor vehicle is being operated on a roadway or shoulder adjacent thereto during the times specified in § 4331 of this
title, the driver shall use a distribution of light or composite beam directed high enough and of sufficient intensity to reveal persons and
vehicles at a safe distance in advance of the vehicle, subject to the following requirements and limitations:
(1) Whenever a driver of a vehicle approaches an oncoming vehicle within 500 feet, such driver shall use a distribution of light or
composite beam so aimed that the glaring rays are not projected into the eyes of the oncoming driver. The lowermost distribution of light
or composite beam specified in § 4349(2) of this title shall be deemed to avoid glare at all times, regardless of road contour and loading;
(2) Whenever the driver of a vehicle follows another vehicle within 200 feet to the rear, except when engaged in the act of overtaking
and passing, such driver shall use a distribution of light permissible under this chapter other than the uppermost distribution of light
specified in § 4349(1) of this title.
