Can the position lights and low beam headlights be turned on simultaneously?
1 Answers
When the low beam headlights are turned on, the position lights are also activated by default. This means that turning on the low beam headlights will automatically turn on the position lights as well, whereas if you want the position lights to be on alone, you do not need to turn on the low beam headlights. Below is an introduction to position lights: 1. Position lights, also known as clearance lights or simply small lights, serve as warning lights for vehicles, providing visibility in conditions such as rainy or foggy weather. Low beam headlights are used for illumination, with a range of about 30-40 meters, and are primarily used during nighttime driving. 2. According to traffic regulations, vehicles must have their position lights and rear position lights on during nighttime driving. During dusk or twilight, position lights should be turned on to alert vehicles in front and behind, making the vehicle more visible and helping to prevent traffic accidents. 3. Position lights must be turned on during rainy weather; in foggy conditions where visibility is low and the view is obscured, position lights should also be activated. In such conditions, pedestrians, slow-moving vehicles, broken-down vehicles, and potholes are harder to spot, increasing the risk of accidents. Drivers should reduce speed and proceed cautiously. 4. The regulations for low beam headlights state that when there are no central dividing facilities on the road, drivers should switch to low beams when approaching an oncoming vehicle at about 150 meters. Low beams should also be used when meeting on narrow roads or bridges, and on well-lit roads at night.
