Question 7480

If the sun has not yet risen but visibility is good, which lights must you use when driving on a road outside a built-up area?

  1. None.
  2. The position lights only.
  3. The position lights and low beams.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The position lights and low beams.

Until the sun rises, lights are required, including on roads outside built-up areas and even if you can already see well. With good visibility, the road counts as well lit, so you must use your position lights and low beams. In the image, the sun has not risen yet, and both the coach bus and the passenger car ahead have their lights on.
