Correct answer

  • ASí, si están mal regladas.Yes, if they are badly adjusted.
Explanation

Dipped headlights should not dazzle other road users unless they are badly adjusted. Main beam, however, does bother them, so we must switch to dipped headlights as soon as we notice that we may dazzle another road user.
