When are headlights required to be used?

Headlights are required to be used from sunset to sunrise and during poor visibility conditions to enhance safety on the road. This regulation ensures that drivers can see the road and any potential obstacles or other vehicles clearly, helping to prevent accidents.

Additionally, during poor visibility conditions such as rain, fog, snow, or heavy overcast, using headlights improves the visibility of the vehicle to others on the road, which is crucial for both the safety of the driver and other road users. This requirement is particularly significant in areas where street lighting may be inadequate or where weather conditions can obscure vision. By mandating the use of headlights under these circumstances, the regulation aims to create a safer driving environment.
