Headlights are for visibility when lighting is low or conditions reduce how far you can see. In Nova Scotia, you should switch them on in poor visibility and from dusk to dawn. If your vehicle has daytime running lights, you can use them during daylight, but you should move to full headlights when visibility drops or it’s dark. Daytime running lights help others see you, but they don’t illuminate the road for you like headlights do. Keeping headlights off in daylight isn’t correct, and needing them on at all times regardless of weather isn’t required.
