Warning signs
Use headlights
What it means
Turn your headlights on for the stretch of road ahead, such as a tunnel or snow shed.
Yellow diamonds (and five-sided yellow-green school signs) warn of hazards ahead.
Summarised from ICBC’s Learn to Drive Smart. Read the original: Signs signals and road markings ↗
How to recognise it
A yellow horizontal rectangle with a black border and the words USE HEADLIGHTS.
Where you will see it
Before tunnels and snow sheds, often posted under the warning sign.
What to do when you see it
- 1.Turn on your headlights before the stretch ahead, even in daylight.
- 2.Slow down so your eyes have time to adjust to the darker road.
On the knowledge test
The words say it all. The test pairs it with tunnels: headlights on, sunglasses off.
