Chapter: Ch. 6 Hazardous Areas
Section: 第３節 夜間
Type: True/False
Difficulty: medium

## Question
Interior lights, including those in taxis, must not be turned on while driving.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road say interior lights (except in buses) should not be turned on while driving, but this is a recommendation — there is no legal obligation barring ordinary vehicles or taxis from turning on interior lights while driving. The mandatory wording "must not be turned on" is therefore incorrect. (Route buses, by contrast, are required to keep their interior lights on at night.)
