When are headlights required to be used in Georgia?

Headlights are required to be used in Georgia from sunset to sunrise and during any time when visibility is reduced. This includes not only nighttime driving but also conditions where weather phenomena such as rain, fog, or heavy snow impair visibility.

By ensuring headlights are used during these times, drivers can better see the road and be seen by other vehicles, enhancing overall safety on the road. Visibility can be significantly diminished due to various factors, and the laws are designed to promote safer driving conditions for everyone.

The requirement goes beyond simply using headlights at night, acknowledging that reduced visibility can occur at any time of day due to environmental conditions, which is critical for preventing accidents and ensuring that all road users can navigate safely.
