What lights must be left on when a vehicle is stopped on the shoulder on this road at night?

When a vehicle is stopped or parked on the shoulder at night, it must remain visible to other drivers.

If the road or shoulder of a poorly illuminated crossing is not well lit as in the image, the sidelights (position lights) must stay on.

These small lights mark the vehicle’s presence without dazzling others.

They can be replaced by parking lights only when the vehicle is parked in line and near the edge of the road.

Dipped headlights are not required in this situation and could cause glare.

Therefore, sidelights ensure safety and compliance with the law during nighttime stops.
