You should turn on the headlights, position lights, and tail lights. According to Article 58 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": When driving at night without street lights, under poor lighting conditions, or in situations of low visibility such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, motor vehicles should turn on the headlights, position lights, and tail lights. However, high beams should not be used when a following vehicle is driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction. Here are some precautions for car light maintenance: 1. Avoid inferior bulbs: The performance of the bulbs is crucial as it affects nighttime illumination and driving safety. High-quality headlight bulbs are a strong guarantee for safe driving. 2. Perform regular maintenance: Cars require regular maintenance, such as checking whether the engine oil and oil filter need replacement and whether the brakes are functioning properly. Similarly, headlight bulbs also need regular inspection for integrity and timely replacement. Generally, after a car has traveled 50,000 kilometers or about 2 years, the brightness of the headlight bulbs may weaken. At this point, it is necessary to have them inspected at a 4S shop. If the brightness is insufficient, it is best to replace the bulbs promptly, preferably replacing both sides simultaneously to maintain uniform brightness.
