What is the law about driving with your high beams on during the daytime?

The laws vary from state to state. I'm sure some states have laws that prohibit this. They can be pretty blinding during the day as well as night.
Here is my common sense view. Never drive with your high beams on, unless it is night and you don't have oncoming traffic. Don't use high beams when it is foggy. Don't use them during the day. My gosh, they make special low power daytime running lights for daytime use. If you don't have these, use your low beams.

∙ 14y agoIn my experience, the wording of the DMV regulations in most states refer simply to "dazzling" or "blinding" lights and are not otherwise defined as "high" beams. If your front lights (low beams/high beams/fog lamps) fit the description of "dazzling" lights (DAY or night) then they are unlawful when used in an oncoming traffic situation.

As a guess both low beams are burnt out The daytime running and high beams are the same light filament. Or the fuse or the relay for the low beams.

Low beams - high beams only light up the snow or fog which further impairs vision.
What do you use your high beams for?
High beams are the lights you want to use when driving at night when no one else is in front of you. High beams will give you increased visibility, and that's a good thing except when you're blinding other drivers, or driving in severe fog or rain. In severe fog or rain high beams can actually be worse.
