Question 7477

You will know that you are driving on an insufficiently lit road if, with normal vision...

  1. you cannot make out a dark-colored vehicle from 50 meters away.
  2. you cannot make out a dark-colored vehicle from 80 meters away.
  3. you cannot see a vehicle's license plate from 50 meters away.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: you cannot make out a dark-colored vehicle from 50 meters away.

With normal vision, a road is insufficiently lit if, at some point on the roadway, you can't make out a dark vehicle from 50 meters away or read a license plate from 10 meters away. Failing either test is enough. A license plate at 50 meters or a dark vehicle at 80 isn't a valid test, because the distance is 10 meters for the plate and 50 for the dark vehicle.
