vehicles with a platform, the rear lights are
covered.
The vehicle will then be unsafe as its rear
lights will not be visible for approaching
traffic. Other road users may not realize until
too late that it is an obstruction. This could
lead to an accident.
You should ensure that the vehicle is visible
from the rear in accordance with the relevant
national regulations, by using the warning
triangle for instance.
