Correct answer
white at the front and red at the rear.
White at the front and red at the rear, under Annex X of the General Vehicle Regulations. They indicate total width and help show vehicle outline from high outer positions. They are required when width exceeds 2.10 metres. Do not confuse the front ones with amber indicators or white reversing lights located at the rear.
