When should headlights be switched on?

Headlights should be switched on in inclement weather or when visibility is low because they enhance visibility for both the driver and other road users. Conditions that impair visibility include rain, fog, snow, or haze, where natural light is reduced. By using headlights, drivers can see better and also make their vehicles more visible to others, reducing the risk of accidents.

It’s also important to recognize that relying solely on headlights during nighttime or in tunnels is insufficient for various weather-related situations. While headlights are essential for these times, the need to use them whenever visibility is compromised is broader and encompasses more driving scenarios.
