Show answer

Correct answer

  • Cse acorta la iluminación a larga distancia.long-distance lighting is shortened.
Explanation

If the headlights point too low, they only light the nearby area and long-distance visibility is reduced. If they point too high, they dazzle others. That is why their height must be adjusted according to the vehicle's load.
