What are the four tail lights of a car?
2 Answers
Car small light: Position light, mainly provides a signal to other vehicles about the width of the car (belongs to the signal light category). Tail light: The tail light includes many lights, such as the brake light, which provides a signal to the following vehicle to slow down or stop (belongs to the signal light category). Reverse light: Provides a signal to the following vehicle indicating reverse movement, and also serves as illumination for reversing at night (belongs to the signal light and illumination light category). Rear fog light: Used in conditions of poor visibility (fog lights have strong penetration capability, belongs to the signal light category). Turn signal light: As the name suggests, it provides a signal for turning (belongs to the signal light category). Side light is the turn signal light.
I've been driving small trucks for cargo transport for decades, learning the ropes through thick and thin, and I know all about those taillights. The four taillights at the rear of a vehicle aren't randomly installed—each has its own role: the position lights stay on at night, letting vehicles behind recognize your location from afar; the brake lights instantly turn red when you press the pedal, warning trailing cars to avoid rear-end collisions; the turn signals flash when you steer, indicating left or right turns; and the reverse lights shine white when you shift into reverse, preventing you from backing over things. These four work in perfect harmony, like old partners ensuring safety. On long-haul drives, I check them every other month—cleaning dust off the lens covers, replacing burnt-out bulbs promptly. Otherwise, like that time on a rainy night when my brake lights failed on the highway, the car behind nearly rear-ended me. When driving, lights on mean peace of mind, especially on mountain roads where they guide the way. Don't skimp on these small details and risk bigger troubles—just sharing some solid advice from an old-timer.
