Question 7520
If you park on the shoulder of a road section through a built-up area that is insufficiently lit, which lights must you leave on?
- The low-beam headlights and the hazard lights.
- The position lights or the parking lights.
- None.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The position lights or the parking lights.
On a poorly lit road section through a built-up area (travesía), your parked car must be visible at night, so you must leave its position lights on. If you have parallel parked, you may use parking lights instead. Low beams and hazard lights are not needed. In the image, the passenger car parked at the entrance to town has its rear position lights on.
