Which mounting height limit applies to front fog lamps?

  • A.Not lower than 250 millimetres from the road surface, which protects the lamps from damage by road debris encountered
  • B.Not higher than the dipped beam headlamps
  • C.At least half a metre above the road, which ensures that the beam reaches sufficiently far ahead of the vehicle
  • D.No limit

Answer: B

Regulations require the fog lamps to sit no higher than the dipped beam and usually specify a minimum height above the road. A minimum of 250 millimetres genuinely applies in many standards, which makes the last option a real requirement as well. The order in which the effects act is what decides the outcome, so it is worth establishing first. Working the distinction through on a single concrete case fixes it more firmly than any rule of thumb.
