(1) Whenever a driver of a vehicle approaches an oncoming vehicle within five hundred feet, such driver shall use a distribution of light, or composite beam, so aimed that the glaring rays are not projected into the eyes of the oncoming driver. The lowermost distribution of light, or composite beam, specified in subsection (b) of section 14-96t shall be dimmed to avoid glare at all times, regardless of road contour and loading. (2) Whenever the driver of a vehicle approaches another vehicle from the rear, within three hundred feet, such driver shall use a distribution of light permissible under sections 14-96a to 14-96aa, inclusive, other than the uppermost distribution of light specified in subsection (a) of section 14-96t.
