Question 1372 in the bank

Is it obligatory to install parking lights on a vehicle that also has Extremity (width) side lights?

  1. Yes, the side lights have a different color and cannot replace the parking lights.
  2. Yes, parking lights should be installed on all vehicles, regardless of side lights.
  3. Correct answer: No.
  4. Yes, it is obligatory - in case the side lights malfunction.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: No.

A vehicle that has side (width) lights does not also have to have parking lights. The side lights provide the required marking, so additional parking lights are not obligatory. Parking lights do not have to be installed on every vehicle, nor as a backup in case the side lights malfunction.
