Communication with Other Road Users
- 1/25When you should use direction change lights.
Direction change lights (turn signals) are crucial for communicating your intended maneuvers to other drivers and pedestrians, improving road safety.
The primary purpose of front and rear lights.
Front and rear lights significantly enhance your vehicle’s visibility to others, especially in low light, rain, fog, or at night, preventing accidents.
When you should turn on the front and rear lights of your car.
Headlights and taillights are legally required and essential for visibility during nighttime hours or any time visibility is reduced due to adverse weather conditions.
Why it is important to use direction change lights in advance.
Signalling early gives other road users sufficient time to understand your intentions and react accordingly, reducing the risk of sudden maneuvers or collisions.
When it is prohibited to use front glare lights.
Glare lights (high beams) are generally prohibited when there is oncoming traffic or when following another vehicle closely, as they can temporarily blind other drivers.
The function of speed reduction lights when combined with a right-turn signal.
When you brake while also signaling a right turn, your brake lights (speed reduction lights) illuminate alongside your turn signal, providing a dual alert to drivers behind you.
What turning on rear lights during poor visibility conditions achieves.
In conditions of reduced visibility, illuminated rear lights make your vehicle more conspicuous from behind, giving following drivers an earlier warning of your presence.
Why it is necessary to use the vehicle mirrors before signaling a turn or lane change.
Checking mirrors (and blind spots) before signaling confirms that the space you intend to occupy is clear, preventing collisions with vehicles that may already be there.
What you should do before signaling to turn at an intersection.
Signalling too early (before the preceding intersection) can mislead other drivers about your intended turn, causing confusion. Signal once you’ve passed any previous exits.
When speed reduction lights should be used.
Speed reduction lights (brake lights) automatically activate whenever the brake pedal is pressed, indicating to following drivers that your vehicle is slowing down or coming to a stop.
When it is advisable to use front and rear lights.
Beyond just sunset/sunrise, it’s advisable to use your lights whenever weather conditions like rain, fog, or dust significantly reduce visibility, enhancing safety.
Why it is important to use front and rear lights in bad lighting conditions.
In poorly lit conditions, such as dusk, dawn, or shaded areas, lights are essential for your vehicle to be easily perceived by other road users, preventing accidents.
Why you should use direction change lights in advance while driving.
Early and clear signaling provides adequate warning to others, allowing them to anticipate your actions and react safely, avoiding sudden and unexpected maneuvers.
What you should do if the brake lights of the vehicle in front of you go on.
When the brake lights of the vehicle ahead illuminate, it’s a direct signal that they are slowing down or stopping. You must react by reducing your speed and preparing to brake yourself.
Where you should avoid stopping your vehicle if it breaks down.
Stopping in areas with limited visibility, such as hilltops or turns, is highly dangerous as other drivers may not see your broken-down vehicle in time.
The rule for vehicles stopping overnight on unlit roads.
To ensure safety and visibility, vehicles stopped overnight on unlit roads must display a red light or a reflector at their rear to alert approaching traffic.
Where glare lights should be directed when driving at night.
High beams (glare lights) should be aimed slightly to the right to illuminate the road ahead while minimizing glare for oncoming drivers.
Who is allowed to use sound or light warning devices such as sirens and flashing lights.
These specialized warning devices are reserved exclusively for authorized emergency vehicles to signal their urgency and demand right-of-way.
A common mistake drivers make when stopping in poor visibility conditions.
A critical mistake is to stop in poor visibility and not deploy warning signs (like hazard lights, reflective triangles) to alert other drivers of your stationary vehicle.
Your car doesn’t have a horn.
It’s against the rules to drive a vehicle without a working horn, as it’s needed to warn others of potential risks.
You want to use your car horn.
The horn is a warning device and should only be used when there’s an imminent risk to alert other road users of your presence or position. It shouldn’t be used near hospitals, schools, worship places, or residential areas.
You want to use your high beams (glare lights).
High beams can be very bright. They are prohibited unless visibility is very poor due to weather, as they can blind other drivers.
You have tinted windows on your vehicle.
It is against the rules to use any means to hide vehicle windows without official permission.
You are driving between sunset and sunrise, or during the day when visibility is poor due to weather.
During these times, it’s mandatory to use specific lights to ensure your vehicle is visible to others. You should not switch on high beams when stopped.
You are driving at night and see another vehicle approaching, or you are following another vehicle.
To prevent dazzling other drivers, you should dim your high beams to low beams or position lights when another vehicle is approaching or when you are behind another vehicle.
