When Do You Use Your Headlights??

One of the most important safety features of your vehicle, your headlights ensure that you can see and that other drivers can see you. Effectively using your lights is key to staying safe on the road. It's common sense to turn on your lights when it’s dark out. Did you know that there are other situations when you may want to use your lights? It may feel unnatural to turn on your lights during the day, but there are some conditions that warrant the use of your lights. Inclement weather such as snow, rain, fog and sleet can reduce visibility and make it hard to see and be seen. Using your lights during these conditions can keep you and your passengers safe when the weather turns bad. Car-Lotta reminds you to keep an eye on the sky for changing weather conditions. Storms can quickly roll in and make the sky dark as night. Winter can bring sudden snow squalls and blowing snow that can produce whiteouts and reduce your line of sight.
