Are Position Lights the Same as Headlights?

[VanRosalie]

No, position lights and headlights are operated by the same button, but pressing it once activates the position lights, while pressing it twice turns on the headlights. Below is relevant information: 1. Position Lights: The term 'position' signifies warning, and 'light' refers to outline, so position lights are warning lights on a vehicle used to alert other vehicles. They are installed along the edges of the car's roof, indicating both the height and width of the vehicle. Safety regulations require vehicles taller than three meters to be equipped with position lights. The color of position lights is white at the front and red at the rear. 2. Headlights: Headlights are the main lights of a car. The headlight assembly is one of the crucial components ensuring safe vehicle operation. The farther the headlights illuminate and the better their light distribution characteristics, the higher the safety performance of the vehicle.
