Law Cited on
Headlight Use
Oregon law requires automobile
headlights to be turned on in day­
time whenever there is not enough
light for a driver to see clearly
for a distance of 500 feet, motor­
ists are reminded by Secretary
of State Earl T. Newbry.
He said complaints are being
received that many drivers are
switching on only parking lights
when encountering dense fog dur­
ing daylight hours, a practice
which improves visibility only
slightly and does little to reduce
the collision hazard.
“The law calls for headlights
under such atmospheric conditions,
not parking lights,” he pointed
out. “Using headlights on the
lower' beam will minimize back-
reflection into the eyes of the
driver and will greatly improve
the chances of being seen in time
to avoid coll'ding with another
car or striking a pedestrian.”
Records for the first six months
of 1948 show that half of all
traffic accidents during that period
happened in rain, snow, fog or
generally cloudy weather, the sec­
retary reported. Forty-nine of the
crashes were fatal.
