At dawn, if the sun has not yet risen, which lights on the car should be switched on?
Lighting
Explanation
At dawn, when the sun has not yet risen, it is important to turn on the **dipped beam and position lights** in the car. This is because, although it is not night, natural light is insufficient to ensure good visibility on the road.
- The **position lights** are used when there is little natural light, such as at dawn, so that other drivers can see your vehicle. However, these lights are not sufficient on their own when the car is in motion; they must be combined with other lights.
- The **dipped beam lights** are necessary to improve the driver's visibility and ensure that the vehicle is visible to other road users. These lights are suitable for low-light conditions, such as at dawn.
Therefore, at dawn and before the sun rises, it is essential to turn on both the dipped beam and position lights to ensure road safety.
