In which of these circumstances are you obliged to change from the beam headlights to low beam?

In which of these circumstances are you obliged to change from the beam headlights to low beam?
aWhen approaching a pedestrian going in the same direction.
bWhen approaching a vehicle coming from a transverse road.
cWhen approaching a moving vehicle in front of you and there is a possibility of blinding the driver.

Why?

You must switch from main beam to dipped headlights when approaching a vehicle ahead if you could dazzle its driver, including through the mirrors. The picture shows a car travelling in the same direction, to which this rule would apply when using main beam. Merely approaching an individual pedestrian or a vehicle on a crossing road does not establish the specific duty described in C. However, you must never use main beam in a way that dazzles other drivers.
