Question 3998

Is it permitted to drive using only the vehicle's position lights between sunset and sunrise?

  1. Yes, on any sufficiently lit road.
  2. Only when driving on sufficiently lit urban roads.
  3. No, low-beam or high-beam headlights must also be used.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, low-beam or high-beam headlights must also be used.

When driving a motor vehicle or moped at night, position lights alone are not enough, even on a well-lit street. You must use them together with low beams or high beams, depending on the road, its lighting, and whether you could blind anyone.
