Headlights are required during the hours of darkness. In the morning, when does that requirement end?

Answer options

Why

The law requires headlights starting 30 minutes after the sun sets and ending 30 minutes before it rises, which means that in the morning you can turn them off when sunrise is half an hour away. Leave them on longer when rain, fog, or snow limits visibility.
