ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle has at its front end, a pair of passing or dipped beam headlights and a separate pair of cruising or main beam headlights. The passing headlights and cruising headlights produce, respectively, a regulation, short range, dipped passing beam and a regulation, long range, main or cruising beam. A control unit, when the vehicle is negotiating a bend in passing beam mode, causes at least one of the cruising main beam lights to emit an additional bend beam for lighting into the bend. This bend beam increases the light intensity generally in the direction of the bend.
