The Highway Code establishes strict statutory regulations and safety procedures governing the use of vehicle lights and the horn. Match each specific driving or parking scenario with its legally mandated requirement or procedure.
- Parking an unhitched car overnight on a road or lay-by where the speed limit is 40 mphMust display parking lights (sidelights) and be positioned facing in the direction of traffic flow
- Following closely behind another vehicle at night on an unlit single carriagewayMust keep headlights on dipped beam to prevent dazzling the driver ahead via their rear-view and side mirrors
- Sounding the horn while stationary in daytime traffic on an urban roadStrictly prohibited by law unless another road user or vehicle poses an immediate danger
- Overtaking another vehicle on an unlit road at night using main beam headlightsMust dip headlights before approaching and maintain dipped beam until level with the vehicle being overtaken
Cevap
Parking at night on a 40 mph road pairs with displaying parking lights and facing traffic flow; Following closely at night pairs with keeping headlights dipped to prevent dazzle via mirrors; Sounding horn while stationary in daytime pairs with strict prohibition unless danger is posed; Overtaking on main beam at night pairs with dipping headlights until level with the overtaken vehicle.
Each scenario accurately aligns with statutory Highway Code rules: Rule 249 mandates parking lights on roads over 30 mph; Rule 114 requires dipped beams when following traffic; Rule 112 forbids sounding the horn while stationary unless danger is present; and Rule 115 specifies dipping beams during an overtaking approach until level with the other vehicle.
