Question 2560

If you have parked your passenger car at night on an insufficiently lit road section through a built-up area, must you leave any lights on?

  1. Yes, the position lights and low-beam headlights.
  2. If the road lighting allows other road users to see the vehicle from a sufficient distance, I will not leave any lights on.
  3. Yes, the position lights, the parking lights, or the two position lights on the corresponding side of the roadway when parallel parking.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, the position lights, the parking lights, or the two position lights on the corresponding side of the roadway when parallel parking.

On an insufficiently lit road section through a built-up area, a passenger car parked at night must keep its position lights on. If parallel parked, it may use parking lights or the two position lights on the roadway side instead.
