Question 2436

A road can be considered insufficiently lit when…

  1. The road lighting does not allow you to see clearly.
  2. With normal vision, you cannot read a license plate at 10 meters or distinguish a dark-colored vehicle at 50 meters.
  3. You cannot distinguish another vehicle's license plate at 50 meters.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: With normal vision, you cannot read a license plate at 10 meters or distinguish a dark-colored vehicle at 50 meters.

Lighting is considered insufficient if a person with normal vision cannot read a license plate at 10 meters or distinguish a dark vehicle at 50 meters. Failure to meet either of these two benchmarks is enough.
