How to Turn On the Vehicle Tail Lights?
2 Answers
The method to turn on the vehicle tail lights is as follows: First, power on the car and start the engine, then turn on the headlight switch. Whether you activate the high beams or low beams, the tail lights will automatically turn on with the use of the lights. Tail lights serve to alert vehicles behind that there is a car ahead during nighttime driving and indicate the positional relationship between the two vehicles. The design principles of tail lights include: 1. Having sufficient luminous intensity so that the vehicle tail lights can be clearly distinguished by other drivers or pedestrians even in bright daylight; 2. Ensuring that the light emitted by the tail lights during nighttime driving does not cause glare or discomfort to other drivers or pedestrians.
When I first got my driver's license, figuring out how to turn on the taillights was quite simple. Most cars have a lever or knob on the left side of the steering wheel—just turn it to the 'ON' position or 'AUTO' mode to illuminate the taillights. They usually activate automatically with the headlights. Whether it's raining or nighttime, always turn them on to ensure trailing vehicles can see your position and avoid rear-end collisions. Beginners should make it a habit to familiarize themselves with their car's light switches—don’t cut corners, as safety comes first. During daily driving, forgetting to check your lights could result in a ticket or increase accident risks. I also recommend friends regularly maintain their bulbs to prevent malfunctions.
