When pedestrians go out to walk on national and provincial highways at night, it is recommended to walk in the opposite direction on the left side of the highway to make it easier to observe the movement of incoming vehicles, and hide beyond the shoulder of the road if necessary to minimize the time spent on the road. Before crossing the road, stop and observe the traffic on the side of the road and pass quickly if it is safe to do so. Remember not to cross the road or wait in the middle of the road when a vehicle is approaching.
Vehicles
Concentrate and don't drive tired

Try not to overtake at night, and if you must overtake, choose a place with good lighting, a wide, flat road, and no obstacles.
Pay attention to the intersection and use the lights wisely
When driving vehicles through forks, intersections, and T-junctions, slow down in advance, alternately use high beams and low beams to remind pedestrians and vehicles, and take precautions. In rainy and foggy weather, low beams, fog lights and hazard warning lights should be turned on to make it easier for other pedestrians and vehicles to pay attention.
