In Portuguese road regulations, which exterior lights must a driver use when traveling through a road tunnel during daytime?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Dipped-beam passing headlights
- Step 1: Tunnel lighting mandate. Step 2. Under Article 61 of the Código da Estrada, the use of dipped-beam headlights (médios) is mandatory inside all tunnels, regardless of time of day or internal illumination. Answer: Dipped-beam passing headlights (luzes de cruzamento / médios). Why not the others: Position lights alone do not provide adequate illumination; high beams dazzle other drivers; hazard lights are for emergencies.
