Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

End-outline marker lights (also known as clearance lamps) are mandatory for vehicles wider than 2.10 meters (and optional between 1.80m and 2.10m). Their purpose is to indicate the overall width of the vehicle to alert other road users. Regulations state that the vehicle must carry two white lights on the front and two red lights on the rear. They must be positioned as high and as close to the outer edges as possible, ensuring the vehicle's volume and dimensions are visible from both directions of traffic.
