Question 5367
Is it advisable to perform frequent maintenance on the vehicle's lighting system?
- Yes, which is why monthly checks are required.
- No, only when it has to undergo the legally required vehicle inspection.
- Yes, because driving with poor lighting increases the driver's visual fatigue and the risk of an accident.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, because driving with poor lighting increases the driver's visual fatigue and the risk of an accident.
With dirty, poorly adjusted, or burned-out lights, you see less clearly at night, your eyes tire sooner, and the risk of an accident increases. Poorly adjusted headlights can also blind others. That is why you should check your lights often, not just when your ITV inspection is due. There is no required monthly check.
