Correct answer: Toward the right side of the road.

Answer options

  1. AToward the left side of the road
  2. BToward the right side of the road Correct
  3. CToward either side of the road

Glancing toward the right side of the road keeps the glare of oncoming lights out of your eyes while you can still see the edge of your lane. Staring into bright headlights can leave you briefly unable to see.
