The lights at the back of the car are called combination taillights. Its function is to signal. It consists of rear position lights, reversing lights, brake lights, rear fog lights, turn signals and reflectors. Among them, the brake lights include two left and right brake lights (two) and a high-mounted brake light (one). The lampshade is red. The high-mounted brake light is installed relatively high so that the vehicle behind can easily detect the braking of the vehicle in front, thus preventing rear-end collisions.

fog lights

Hazard warning flashing lights, often called "double flashing lights", are a kind of signal light that alert other vehicles and pedestrians to pay attention to special situations occurring in this car.
When a malfunction occurs on the road or a traffic accident occurs and it is difficult to move a motor vehicle after being stopped, the hazard warning flasher should be turned on according to regulations and a warning sign should be set up 50 meters to 100 meters behind the vehicle;

Turn signal
· ·
The turn signal is an important indicator light that is turned on when a motor vehicle turns to alert the front, rear, left, and right vehicles and pedestrians.
When a car reaches a general level intersection, it should turn on the turn signal in the turning direction 30-10 meters away from the intersection according to the width of the road, the size of the traffic flow and the driving speed at the time. For example, when turning right or changing lanes to the right, the turn signal must be turned on. Turn on the right turn signal. If you turn left or change lanes to the left, you must turn on the left turn signal. When turning into an intersection with a guide lane, turn on the turn signal before entering the guide lane;
When a car enters or exits a roundabout, the corresponding turn signal should be turned on according to the direction of travel. While the vehicle is driving, when the traffic in this lane is not smooth and it is necessary to change lanes, you should use the rearview mirror to check whether the adjacent lane is free. If it does not hinder the normal driving of vehicles in other lanes, you should turn on the corresponding turn signal in advance. Then change lanes;
When the car makes a U-turn, you should turn on the left turn signal and pay attention to see if there are any cars in front and behind the car, and then make a U-turn;
On sections where there is no solid line marking the center of the road, when overtaking is required, the left turn signal should be turned on and the horn should be sounded (except on sections where honking is prohibited). If you are being overtaken, you should keep to the right and give way;
