Must a vehicle that is stopped at night on an inadequately lit through road have its parking lights on?
Lighting
Explanation
To ensure **safety** on the road, it is important that vehicles stopped at night on a **poorly lit road** have their **position lights** on. These lights help make the vehicle visible to other drivers, reducing the risk of accidents.
- Position lights are used when the vehicle is **stopped** in **low-light conditions**, such as on a poorly lit road. This is crucial for other drivers to see the vehicle from a safe distance.
- A road is considered **poorly lit** if you cannot read a vehicle's license plate from 10 meters away or if you cannot see a dark vehicle from 50 meters away. In these conditions, position lights are essential for visibility.
Therefore, whenever a vehicle is stopped at night on a poorly lit road, it is necessary to turn on the position lights to ensure the vehicle is visible and to avoid potential accidents.
