High beam lights should be dimmed for oncoming traffic and when you are behind a vehicle in front of you?
TRUE statement. The actual distance is dictated by state law, which varies.
At night a driver should dim his highlights when an oncoming motor vehicle comes within?
Headlights should be dimmed as soon as the driver is aware that another vehicle is heading towards him, and would be dazzled, even if still in the distance.
At what distance should headlights be dimmed to oncoming traffic?
Each US state and Canadian province has its own regulation on dimming distance. However, most states specify that you must use low beams within 500 feet of an oncoming vehicle, and within 200 feet of a leading vehicle (travelling your same direction). These distances are quite outdated; they were specified when high beams were allowed to produce only less than half the present allowable maximum intensity, and have not been updated as headlamp regulations and technology have evolved. Technically and physiologically, distances more appropriate to today's North American-market headlamps are 700 feet for oncoming, 300 feet for leading vehicles. Nevertheless, if you adhere to 500/200, you will in most cases be meeting your legal obligation.

What should you do if another vehicle does not dim their lights?
In the case of a motorist not having their lights dimmed, such as driving with their high-beams on when not needed, there are a number of ways in which you can deal with the situation. The first, and i believe most common way, is to flash your high-beams at them. Of course this will only work if the vehicle is ahead of you. If the vehicle is behind you, i would suggest a lane change, or even reposition your mirrors so the light isn't in your eyes. Slam on the breaks and make him go round I hope i helped you! This is all i have! By the way, i posted this previously :)
