When driving a motor vehicle in these conditions, are you allowed to use position lights only?

Description

Art. 51 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2005, No. 108, item 908, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

Driving using only position lights is strictly forbidden. According to Art. 51 of the Road Traffic Act, a driver is obliged to use dipped beams when driving from dusk until dawn. Position lights are only for illuminating the vehicle when stationary in conditions of poor visibility, not for illuminating the road while driving.
