When driving at night, which vehicle lights should you turn on?

New Zealand road rules require that when driving at night, the vehicle's front lights must be turned on and set to low beam. This regulation aims to ensure that drivers can clearly see the road and the driving environment ahead, while also allowing other drivers and pedestrians to see your vehicle, thereby reducing the risks associated with night driving. Using low beam headlights instead of high beams is intended to prevent glare for oncoming drivers, ensuring the safety of everyone on the road. This regulation significantly enhances nighttime driving safety and helps avoid traffic accidents that may occur due to poor visibility, making it a crucial traffic safety measure.
