The report discusses different ways in which lighting can be used. Dipped headlights sometimes cause glare and are a rather expensive solution. An improved sidelight or separate attention headlamps are good solutions. The costs are an increased use of fuel, small applications to the car, the modification of bulbs etc., but they are an offset to the benefits. The so-called 'weak road user' cyclists and pedestrians can have also benefits from this measure. It is recommended that this matter should be raised internationally.
