Which vehicle lights must always be switched on when driving at night in a built-up area?
Lighting
Explanation
To drive at night in a town, it is necessary to turn on **the position light and the dipped beam**. Here I explain why:
- **Position lights**: These lights must be on whenever you drive at night. However, when the vehicle is in motion, the position lights are not used alone; they must always be accompanied by another type of light.
- **Dipped beam**: Although not specifically mentioned in the fragments, the dipped beam is commonly used in urban areas at night to provide adequate lighting without dazzling other drivers.
- **Main beam**: This light is mainly used on roads outside towns or cities and is not suitable for driving in towns, as it can dazzle other drivers.
Therefore, when driving at night in a town, it is necessary to use **the position light along with the dipped beam** to ensure adequate visibility and comply with traffic regulations.
