Question 1125 · Truck theory test
What should a driver do when driving at night on an unlit road?
Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
Watch out for unlit e-scooters.
Official explanation
While driving at night and even with the best headlights, it can be very difficult to see all the hazards that you might come across – for example, unlit e-scooters on the road. At night you should drive at a speed that will enable you to stop safely within the distance you can see to be clear ahead.
