A non-functioning headlight can result in a fine. Here are the specific details regarding the penalty: 1. Laws and Regulations: According to the Road Traffic Law, before driving a motor vehicle on the road, the driver should inspect the vehicle's safety and technical performance. It is prohibited to drive a vehicle with incomplete safety facilities or components that do not meet technical standards, as these pose safety hazards. Violating this regulation may result in a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan. For safe driving considerations, Article 90 of the Road Traffic Law stipulates that driving with incomplete vehicle lighting will result in a fine of 100 yuan and a deduction of one point from the driver's license. 2. Handling Methods: If a car headlight fails during nighttime driving, it is best to find a safe place to park, turn on the hazard lights, place a warning sign 150 meters away from the vehicle to alert oncoming traffic, avoid unnecessary movement, retreat to a safe location, and call for roadside assistance as soon as possible.
