Dipped headlights are mandatory during dusk, at night, or anytime visibility is significantly reduced due to weather conditions like heavy rain, snow, or fog. They must also be used in tunnels and, for motorcycles, during the day if not using daytime running lights.
No, daytime running lights (Tagfahrlicht) are not a substitute for dipped headlights (Abblendlicht) during dusk, night, or when visibility is poor. Tagfahrlicht only illuminates the front of your vehicle and does not provide sufficient rear lighting or road illumination for these conditions.
The rear fog light may only be used when visibility is less than 50 meters due to fog, heavy rain, or snow. When it is active, your maximum speed is limited to 50 km/h. You must switch it off as soon as visibility improves beyond 50 meters to avoid dazzling following drivers.
You must dim your full-beam headlights immediately when there is oncoming traffic, when you are following another vehicle closely, or when driving on roads with continuous and sufficient street lighting. Failure to do so can dazzle other road users and is dangerous.
Yes, driving without the legally required lighting in Germany, especially in situations where dipped headlights are mandatory, can result in a fine of 60 Euros and 1 Flensburg point.
