Is it illegal to drive with hazard lights on?
1 Answers
It depends on the situation. The following are circumstances under which hazard lights can be used: 1. Visibility below 100 meters: When visibility is below 100 meters due to severe weather conditions such as heavy fog, heavy rain, or heavy snow, hazard lights must be turned on, along with low beam lights and position lights, to prevent traffic accidents. 2. Vehicle malfunction: If the vehicle cannot operate normally due to a malfunction or emergency and needs to stop to await rescue, hazard lights must be turned on. Note that whenever stopping on the road, hazard lights should be activated. If either party involved in an accident fails to turn on hazard lights, it is considered a violation and may result in fines and penalty points. Additionally, a warning triangle should be placed behind the vehicle.
