Question 3352
Is it permitted to flash your headlights to signal that you intend to pass outside built-up areas?
- No, under no circumstances.
- No, you may only signal this if you are passing in a built-up area.
- Yes, as an exception, just like using the horn.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, as an exception, just like using the horn.
Outside built-up areas, brief headlight flashes are allowed to warn the vehicle ahead of your intention to pass, provided they do not blind others. They may replace a horn warning; there is no need to use both.
