Sunset today is at 7:10 p.m., and the sky is clear. Under New Hampshire law, by what time must your headlights be on?
Correct answer: By 7:40 p.m., one half hour after sunset
Why
Light fades fast at dusk, so many drivers turn their headlights on before the legal time. The law also requires headlights at any hour when rain, snow or fog keeps you from clearly seeing people and vehicles 1,000 feet ahead. In fog, rain or snow, use low beams to cut glare.
