Which action is indicated when all rear red lights are lit?

• A. Hazard lights
• B. Braking
• C. Lane closed
• D. Lights out

Answer: (B)

When all rear red lights are lit, the signal is that you are braking. The brake lights illuminate on the rear of the vehicle whenever you press the brake pedal, so a steady red glow from all rear lamps tells drivers behind you that you’re slowing down or stopping. Hazard lights, by contrast, make all indicator lamps flash, not stay steadily lit. Lane closures aren’t shown by these rear lights, and “lights out” would mean the rear lights aren’t lit at all.
