Is it a traffic violation to drive with hazard lights on under normal conditions?
1 Answers
Driving with hazard lights on in non-low visibility weather conditions is considered a traffic violation. Here is relevant information: Temporary parking on the road: When temporarily parked on the road, especially in non-motorized lanes or when borrowing a lane for parking, the hazard warning lights should be immediately activated to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians for safety. The driver should not leave the vehicle casually. Vehicle accidents: In the event of a traffic accident, the hazard warning lights should be turned on immediately to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians for safety, and the authorities should be notified promptly to await rescue or handling. Reversing or making a U-turn: When reversing or making a U-turn in complex road sections, the hazard warning lights should be activated to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians for safety and to draw attention. Driving in heavy fog: When encountering heavy fog while driving, with visibility below 100 meters, front and rear fog lights should be turned on due to poor visibility to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians, especially vehicles behind, to maintain a safe distance and necessary safe speed, avoiding emergency braking that could lead to rear-end collisions.
