DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Light rain alone does not authorize the use of fog lighting. Under Article 106 of the General Traffic Regulations, the front fog light may be used when weather or environmental conditions markedly reduce visibility; it may also be used on narrow sections with many curves that meet the requirements of that article. The rear fog light must only be on when conditions are especially unfavorable, such as thick fog, very heavy rain, heavy snowfall or dense clouds of dust or smoke. Outside these circumstances it must not be used, because it can cause glare.
