Question 7519

When driving through a sufficiently illuminated tunnel, which lights must you use?

  1. Position lights and low-beam headlights.
  2. Only the position lights.
  3. Position lights and high-beam headlights.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Position lights and low-beam headlights.

In a well-lit tunnel, you must use position lights and low beams, day or night. Position lights alone are not enough. High beams are required only if the tunnel is poorly lit, outside a built-up area, and you are driving above 40 km/h, as long as you do not blind anyone. In the image, the tunnel has rows of lights on the walls and ceiling.
