Tail lights are located at the rear of a vehicle and help other drivers see the car’s direction and braking. They usually have a red lens and may also contain reverse lights and turn signals. It is important to make sure that tail lights are clean and working properly so that other drivers can see the car’s direction, particularly when it is dark or foggy. Many modern tail lights also incorporate LED technology, which makes them even more visible to other drivers. If your tail lights are not working properly, it is important to have them fixed as soon as possible.
