Lights in the front of your car help you find your way. Lights
in the rear help others find you. You are depending on your
taillights to keep other drivers from rear-ending you. If you
are driving at night, or in fog or rain, without taillights,
the driver coming up behind you probably won't know that
you're there until it's too late. It costs much less, in
dollars and lives, to replace a burned out light instead of a
crushed car.

| State law requires your vehicle to have two tail lamps. Are you certain
that both of your tail lamps are working?

The brake lights and back-up lights are key components of the
taillights. Brake lights let the driver behind you know that he
needs to slow down, and back-up lights let drivers and pedestrians
know that your vehicle is moving toward them. Failure of either of these two devices can result in severe injury.
|
Make it a habit to check these rear lights often. They are
easy to forget about. Likewise, if you notice that someone
else's lights are out, tell them. They probably don't know,
and you might just save someone's life.
