A2Difficulty 3/5

Is it correct to ride your motorcycle during the day with the dipped headlight on?

Correct answer

Yes, because it is compulsory

Yes. Article 104 requires motorcycles to use dipped headlights during the day on roads covered by traffic regulations, including within built-up areas. This does not depend on rain or poor visibility. At night the applicable lighting rules apply, including main beam where appropriate; it is incorrect to say that dipped headlights are always the only permissible lights.
