Question 4842
A vehicle parked on the shoulder of a poorly lit road section through a built-up area (travesía)...
- is required to have its position lights on, which may be replaced by the parking lights.
- is not required to have any lights on, since it is parked within a built-up area.
- is not required to have any lights on, since it is on the shoulder of an urban road.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: is required to have its position lights on, which may be replaced by the parking lights.
At night, if you park on the roadway or shoulder of a poorly lit road section through a built-up area (travesía), you must leave your position lights on. If you parallel park, you may use the parking light or the two position lights on the side facing the roadway instead. Being in a built-up area does not exempt you from this requirement.
