Can the position lights and low beam lights be turned on together?
1 Answers
Position lights and low beam lights cannot be turned on simultaneously. Here are the relevant details: 1. When turning on the low beam lights, the design requires first activating the position lights, then the low beam lights. The first turn of the control lever activates the position lights, and the second turn activates the low beam lights. Therefore, when the low beam lights are on, the position lights are already activated. 2. Generally, regulations stipulate that vehicles with a body height exceeding three meters must be equipped with position lights, and vehicles with a width greater than 2.10 meters must also have them. For close-range illumination, the design requires low beam lights to have a wide coverage (160°) but a short illumination distance, approximately 30-40 meters. 3. When driving at night at a speed of 55 km/h, if a situation is detected and the brakes are immediately applied, the stopping distance is exactly 30 meters. This means that the safe distance for seeing an obstacle within the low beam light's range and braking immediately at night is 30 meters, with the speed generally controlled at 40 km/h.
