Vehicle Lighting and Visibility Aids
- 1/10When driving between sunset and sunrise or in rain, fog, or tunnels
In poor visibility or nighttime conditions, vehicles must use their position lights and dipped beam headlights to ensure visibility to others and safe driving.
On interurban roads that are insufficiently lit
High beams are allowed in poorly lit rural roads but must be switched to low beams when another vehicle could be blinded.
When traveling below 40 km/h on an unlit interurban road
At low speeds on rural roads with insufficient lighting, it is acceptable to use dipped headlights to avoid glare and over-illumination.
When stopped temporarily or involuntarily at night
For safety, position lights are required for all stopped or detained vehicles at night; emergency lights should also be used in forced stops.
When parking at night in urban areas
On urban roads, parked vehicles are generally not required to display lights, unless specific road or weather conditions require it.
When parked on a cross-town road at night
To avoid accidents, parked vehicles on non-urban roads should display minimal lighting to alert other drivers of their presence.
When using front fog lights
Front fog lights are optional and intended for severe visibility conditions or twisty roads, but should not be used in clear or lightly rainy conditions.
When using rear fog lights
Rear fog lights are powerful red lights used to prevent rear-end collisions but must be used sparingly due to their brightness.
When emergency lights are flashing simultaneously
Emergency lights alert other drivers to danger and are mandatory in breakdowns or risks of collision; they can also be used in non-priority emergency vehicles.
When a vehicles license plate is visible at night
The plate must be visible at all times, especially at night, using a light that switches on with the position lights.
