Question 4732

Pedestrians traveling at night on a road outside a built-up area must carry...

  1. a flashlight that emits white light forward and red light backward.
  2. light-colored clothing that can be seen from a distance of at least 150 meters.
  3. a luminous or reflective element that can be seen from a distance of at least 150 meters.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: a luminous or reflective element that can be seen from a distance of at least 150 meters.

Outside built-up areas, at night or in poor visibility, pedestrians walking on the shoulder or roadway must wear or carry at least one light-emitting or reflective item, such as a vest, visible from 150 meters or more. Light-colored clothing is not enough. Groups of pedestrians are also required to carry a white light facing forward and a red light facing backward. In the image, the pedestrian's vest shines in the headlights.
