Must dual lights having the same function, such as the indicators, present the same color?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, it is mandatory. According to General Vehicle Regulations, any lighting device that is duplicated (paired or dual lights) and performs the same function must have identical color and intensity. This is fundamental for road safety, as it allows other users to correctly identify the vehicle's position, size, and intentions without confusion. This rule is general and applies to all vehicles, not just passenger cars; therefore, they cannot be of different colors to distinguish between them.
