6.5.16 Lighting
Example 1
If the front light is positioned too high, oncoming traffic will be dazzled. This can cause a serious accident
with fatalities.
Example 2
Positioning the front light correctly can ensure that oncoming traffic is not dazzled and no-one is put at risk.
Example 3
If the front light is positioned too low, the space ahead is not illuminated to an optimum extent and the
rider's vision is reduced in the dark.
