What Lights Should Be Used When Driving at Night in the City?

[CarmenLynn]

When driving at night in the city, you should turn on the width marker lights and low beam headlights. If the lighting is insufficient or there are few oncoming vehicles, you can also use high beam headlights. However, it is important to note that when encountering oncoming traffic, you must switch from high beam to low beam to avoid affecting the visibility of oncoming vehicles and creating safety hazards. Width marker lights do not have a separate switch; they are automatically activated when the low beam headlights are turned on. As long as the low beam is on, the width marker lights will also be on. Width marker lights are suitable for use in low-visibility conditions such as dusk, twilight, rainy weather, dawn, rain fog, and haze. Additionally, if you encounter foggy conditions, you should also turn on the front and rear fog lights. When visibility on the highway is less than 100 meters, the speed should not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and you should turn on the front and rear fog lights, low beam headlights, and marker lights, while maintaining a distance of more than 50 meters from the vehicle in front in the same lane.
