What lighting must you leave on if you park on the roadway or shoulder of a poorly lit traverse road (travesía)?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Regulations state that any vehicle parked on the roadway or shoulder of a poorly lit traverse road (travesía) must keep the position lights (sidelights) on to ensure visibility. These may be replaced by parking lights (or the two position lights on the side facing the road) if the vehicle is parked parallel to the curb. Low beams would drain the battery, and hazard lights are reserved for breakdowns or dangerous situations, not for voluntary parking.
