BDifficulty 2/5

In a car, when dipped beam, main beam or front fog lights are switched on, what happens to the position lights?

Correct answer

They must be on together with those lights.

They must be on together with those lights, under the vehicle’s prescribed lighting connections. Position lights indicate presence and width; they are insufficient to illuminate the carriageway. Do not generalise this to every lamp, such as indicators or daytime running lights. Parked-vehicle rules are different and depend on road type and visibility.
