BDifficulty 2/5

With clear skies, at which of these times can low ambient light make the road harder to see and require particular attention to lighting?

Correct answer

At dawn while ambient light remains low.

At dawn. Twilight at dawn or dusk can make contrast and obstacles harder to perceive; dawn is not necessarily always the day’s worst visibility. Use the lights required by the road and conditions, without delaying when light is poor. Before sunrise, night-driving rules apply; afterwards lighting may still be required for reduced visibility, tunnels or other circumstances. Adapt speed to what you can see.
