King County: The winter solstice has arrived and the Washington State Patrol (WSP) would like to take this opportunity to remind the motoring public that headlights create a safer driving environment even during the daytime.
The shortest day of the year is a good time to remember to turn your headlights on for safety as we experience some pretty dark and gray days. Another thing to remember that even the “auto” light feature may not activate when headlights could be a benefit for being more visible near dawn or dusk. The following quote is from an email the WSP received and it very well said! “Seems like folks think the lights are about seeing – not about being seen.”
The Washington State Patrol wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday season! #UseYourHeadlights!
