Miért nem engedik Európában, hogy sárgán is világítson elől a lámpa az autón?

A közút is akkor használ borostyánsárga fényt, ha ott valami veszély van. Pl. útépítés, balesetveszélyes hely, lassú jármű stb.

Egy hétköznapi személyautónak, normál közlekedés közben miért kéne folyamatosan figyelmeztető színnel világítania?

#10 "Mennyi butaságot hordtok össze. Nem a sárga színű a főfény Amerikában sem, az csak a helyzetjelző."

A helyzetjelző nem sárga, hanem lehet sárga vagy fehér.

2.2 Definitions

2.2.1 Clearance Lamps — Lamps mounted on the permanent structure of the vehicle as near as practicable to the upper left and right extreme edges that provide light to the front or rear to indicate the overall width and height of the vehicle.

2.2.2 Side Marker Lamps— Lamps mounted on the permanent structure of the vehicle as near as practicable to the front and rear edges, that provide light to the side to indicate the overall length of the vehicle. Additional lamps may also be mounted at intermediate locations on the sides of the vehicle.

2.2.3 Combination Clearance aND Side Marker Lamps— Single lamps which simultaneously fulfill the performance requirements of clearance and side marker lamps.

2.2.4 Identification Lamps— Lamps used in groups of three, in a horizontal row, that provide light to the front or rear or both, having lamp centers that are spaced not less than 150 mm nor more than 310 mm apart, mounted on the permanent structure as near as practicable to the vertical centerline and the top of the vehicle to identify vehicles 2032 mm or more in overall width.

3. Lighting Identification Code— Clearance, side marker, or identification lamps may be identified by the

code "P2," and combination clearance and marker lamps may be identified with the code "PC," and in accordance with SAE J759.

Nem csak elől kell, hanem oldalt is. Oldalról nézve, ezzel jelölve van (elöl sárga, hátul piros) a jármű haladási iránya.

Mezei BMW, csak elől folyamatosan sárgán világít, nem felel meg sem az USA-ban, sem Európában.

Pl.: a Pontiac a logóba tette, oldalt hátra a poros fényt:
