What must be assessed regarding the headlights of the vehicle?

The assessment of headlights focuses on ensuring they are aimed correctly and function properly on both high and low beams, which is crucial for safe driving. Proper alignment is necessary so that the headlights illuminate the road ahead adequately without blinding oncoming drivers. If headlights are misaligned, they can fail to adequately light the road or glare into the eyes of other drivers, creating dangerous conditions.

Additionally, functioning on both high and low beams is essential for various driving situations. Low beams are used for regular driving conditions and in the presence of oncoming traffic, while high beams are useful in rural or low-traffic areas to enhance visibility. Therefore, both functions must be operational for the vehicle to meet safety standards required for inspection.

This comprehensive assessment ensures that the vehicle can be safely driven under all lighting conditions, promoting safety for the driver and other road users.
