Busch 48002, Citroën DS19, France/yellow headlights

Until 1993, yellow headlights were still a fixed requirement in France, as the yellow light is said to be less dazzling in fog and the view is more contrasting. Vehicles with yellow headlights were also common in Sweden. Especially in heavy rain, snow or dense fog, white headlights do very little, it can even have the opposite effect and your own light will be reflected.According to the StVZO, yellow headlights are officially forbidden in Germany, but driving with yellow headlights does not result in a penalty. And the yellow headlights allow conclusions to be drawn about the country of origin even without looking at the country code.
