Why can't front fog lights and rear fog lights be turned on simultaneously?
1 Answers
Front fog lights and rear fog lights can be turned on simultaneously. After turning on the parking light switch and the parking lights are illuminated, then turn on the fog light switch. Some vehicles have an ON position marked, and for rear fog lights, some require the front fog lights to be turned on first before operating the switch, while others do not. This depends on the specific vehicle model. Although they are controlled separately, the rear fog lights can be turned on together with the front fog lights. If you want both front and rear fog lights to be on simultaneously, simply turn the light switch to the rear fog light position. More details are as follows: 1. Front fog lights are positioned lower and have non-directional light sources. When driving on uneven roads at night, neither high beams nor low beams can clearly illuminate the road ahead. In such cases, turning on the front fog lights is a good option. 2. Fog lights have strong penetration in foggy conditions, making it easier for other vehicles or pedestrians to notice them early in low-visibility weather, thereby effectively preventing accidents. 3. Fog lights can significantly interfere with the vision of other drivers, so it is advisable to avoid using them during normal driving to prevent inconvenience to other road users.
