C1Difficulty 3/5

Light rain does not significantly reduce visibility. There is no fog, smoke, dust or other visibility-reducing condition, and you are not on a narrow road section with many signposted bends. May you switch on fog lights solely because of that rain?

Correct answer

No.

No. This rain alone does not satisfy the conditions for use. Front fog lights may be used when visibility is significantly reduced and also on carriageways no wider than 6.50 m with many closely spaced signposted bends. Rear fog lights are reserved for especially adverse conditions such as thick fog or very heavy rain. Front fog lights are not always mandatory: Article 106 provides lighting alternatives.
