Where are the vehicle width indicator lights located?
1 Answers
Vehicle width indicator lights are positioned at the high points of both the front and rear of the car. The front width indicators are located beside the main headlights, while the rear ones are usually integrated with the brake lights. These lights primarily serve to indicate the vehicle's width and height during driving in conditions such as dusk, overcast days, rain, or fog, helping other drivers judge relative positions and vehicle size during overtaking or oncoming traffic. Typically, the front width lights are white, and the rear ones are red. The control switch for these lights is the lighting knob. For models with only manual light control, turning the knob one notch activates the width indicators, and another turn switches on the headlights. Vehicles equipped with automatic headlights will have their width lights automatically illuminate in low-light conditions when the switch is set to AUTO mode.
