When driving on a conventional road during light snowfall, are you allowed to switch on the fog lights?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is yes, but only the front one, as the rear one is not allowed in this case. Detailed explanation: Front fog light (Optional): Its use is permitted (but not mandatory) when conditions significantly reduce visibility, such as fog, heavy rain, snowfall (any intensity), or clouds of smoke or dust. Rear fog light (Mandatory in extreme cases): It must only be switched on when meteorological or environmental conditions are especially unfavorable. This means: very dense fog, very heavy rain, heavy snowfall, or dense clouds of dust or smoke. In light snow, the rear light would dazzle and disturb other drivers, so its use is prohibited.
