These can be their dipped headlights or a special lighting unit, generally bright light emitting diodes (leds) built into the headlamp units.

Many motorists voluntarily switch their headlights on during daylight hours, especially on rural roads and when the visibility is poor. It is important to emphasize the positive effects (saving road crash casualties) and to limit the negative effects (greater fuel consumption) as much as possible.\r\n","question_score_id":null,"lang":"","questionAudioPath":null},{"id":524577,"quiz_id":"26555","answer_id":null,"answerType_id":"0","created_at":"2018-08-12 18:28:58","updated_at":"2018-08-13 15:58:02","questionName":"Are you allowed to visually warn the oncoming driver that the vehicle's lights are not lit?\r\n","questionTimeSeconds":"0","questionTimeMinutes":"1","questionImagePath":null,"position":6,"explanation":"Yes, here you should visually warn the oncoming driver that its lights are not lit.

What is generally the cause of this?\r\n","questionTimeSeconds":"0","questionTimeMinutes":"1","questionImagePath":null,"position":4,"explanation":"In general this is due to a bulb failure in the head lamp; when the bulb fails to work properly, because it has been damaged, broken or warn, the resistance switches adapt to the sudden change by making the light blink repeatedly in a very fast manner. Sometimes it can also be due to a low voltage supply or a poor ground connection. Remember that it is illegal to drive with a faulty indicator; be sure to carry spare bulbs! Case in point: the direction indicator, also just known as indicator or turn signal or blinker, is a device triggered manually inside a car to indicate the direction that a driver intends to turn. It has been in place for over 70 years, serving as a legally-mandated warning mechanism.\r\n","question_score_id":null,"lang":"","questionAudioPath":null},{"id":524576,"quiz_id":"26555","answer_id":null,"answerType_id":"0","created_at":"2018-08-12 18:28:41","updated_at":"2018-08-13 15:58:02","questionName":"Where can you dispose of your small defective motorcycle battery?\r\n","questionTimeSeconds":"0","questionTimeMinutes":"1","questionImagePath":null,"position":5,"explanation":"A small defective motorcycle battery should be disposed of at: - a collection depot for domestic chemical waste or - a mobile collection point for domestic chemical waste.\r\n","question_score_id":null,"lang":"","questionAudioPath":null},{"id":524815,"quiz_id":"26555","answer_id":null,"answerType_id":"0","created_at":"2018-08-12 23:15:53","updated_at":"2018-08-13 15:58:02","questionName":"What does this signal given by this authorised person mean?\r\n","questionTimeSeconds":"0","questionTimeMinutes":"1","questionImagePath":"uploads\/lighting-and-signals\/Screen Shot 2018-08-13 at 01.15.37.png","position":1,"explanation":"This authorised person is giving you a signal that conforms with figure 8; this is a stop signal for all drivers given by a school crossing patrol; this person uses a signal (F10).

This means that the headlight will automatically light up when the engine is running; on electric powered vehicles this will occur when its main switch is set to the on position. Case in point: since 2011 all new passenger cars in Europe must be equipped with DRL (Daytime Running Lights). In Dutch this is also referred to as MVO (Motor Voertuigverlichting Overdag). According to the SWOV (Institute for Road Safety Research, The Netherlands) this can save around 30 fatalities and 500 seriously injured road traffic casualties. On motorcycles alone these lights could reduce the amount of road traffic casualties by 5 -10% .\r\n","question_score_id":null,"lang":"","questionAudioPath":null}]
