Vehicles: lighting equipment.
Summary
Existing law authorizes a vehicle to be equipped with not more than 8 lamps for use as headlamps while the vehicle is operated or driven off the highway. Existing law requires the lamps, whenever the vehicle is operated or driven upon a highway, to be covered or hooded with an opaque hood or cover and turned off. This bill would remove the requirement that the lamps be covered or hooded.
