On a road through a built-up area with insufficient lighting you must have switched on...
Lighting
Explanation
To drive on a **poorly lit road**, it is necessary to turn on the **position lights and dipped beam headlights**. This is because:
- The **dipped beam headlights** are mandatory at night on all types of roads, both inside and outside towns and cities. Additionally, they are used during the day in low visibility situations, such as in tunnels or temporary lanes due to roadworks or accidents.
- The **main beam headlights** are not suitable on roads, as their use is reserved for roads outside towns or cities and can dazzle other drivers.
- The **position lights** are used to indicate the presence of the vehicle and are complementary to the dipped beam headlights in low lighting conditions.
Therefore, on a road with insufficient lighting, the combination of **position lights and dipped beam headlights** ensures that the vehicle is visible and that the driver has good visibility without dazzling others.
