  • Driving in dense fog where visibility is reduced to under 100 metres (328 feet)Switch on fog lights and turn them off when visibility improves
  • Stopped and causing a temporary obstruction on a highway due to a vehicle breakdownTurn on hazard warning lights to alert approaching road users
  • Driving along a street with street lighting in a built-up area between 23:30 and 07:00Do not sound the horn unless another road user poses immediate danger

Cevap

Match following at night with dipped headlights; dense fog under 100 metres with switching on fog lights; stationary breakdown obstruction with hazard warning lights; and driving in a built-up area between 23:30 and 07:00 with the horn restriction.
Each driving scenario corresponds directly to a statutory Highway Code requirement: dipped headlights prevent dazzling when following other traffic (Rule 114/115), fog lights are permitted only when visibility is below 100 metres (Rule 226), hazard warning lights alert traffic to a stationary obstruction (Rule 116), and horn use in built-up areas is restricted between 23:30 and 07:00 (Rule 112).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the lighting requirement when trailing another vehicle at night
Dipped headlights must be selected
Main beam headlights dazzle preceding road users via their rear-view and side mirrors
2
Determine the legal threshold for using fog lights
Fog lights are used when visibility drops below 100 metres
Using fog lights in clear weather dazzles others, but under 100 metres they are legally permitted and necessary
3
Identify the primary purpose of hazard warning lights
Hazard warning lights indicate a stationary vehicle causing an obstruction
They alert approaching traffic to slow down and navigate past the broken-down vehicle safely
4
Identify statutory nighttime horn restrictions in urban areas
Sounding the horn is prohibited between 23:30 and 07:00 on restricted roads unless danger is present
Highway Code Rule 112 protects residential areas from nighttime noise disturbance
