Switches
~WARNING
Accidents can happen when you
cannot see the road ahead and
when you cannot be seen by other
motorists.
Never use daytime running
lights to see where you're go-
ing. They are not bright enough
and won't let you see far enough
ahead for safety, especially at
dusk or when it's dark.
- Rear tail lights do not light up
when daytime running lights are
on. A vehicle without rear tail
lights turned on cannot be seen
by others in b a d weather at dusk
or when it is dark.
- Always turn on the headlights
so that you can see ahead and so
that others can see your vehicle
from the back.
