Glare

Glare is one of the topics in the Driving maneuvers block of the Spanish DGT theory. Overtaking, changes of direction, stopping, parking, lighting and warnings. Understanding this section well helps you answer the theory-exam questions on this topic with confidence.

In simple terms, this point of the DGT theory establishes that if a driver experiences glare, they must reduce speed as necessary, even to a full stop if required, to avoid colliding with vehicles or pedestrians traveling in the same direction.

Manoeuvres are tested with practical cases; remember the correct order: observe, signal and only then carry out the manoeuvre.
