Rear position lamp

Definition

Conspicuity for the rear of a vehicle is provided by rear position lamps. These are required to produce only red light and to be wired such that they are lit whenever the front position lamps are lit, including when the headlamps are on. Rear position lamps may be combined with the vehicle's stop lamps or separate from them.
