The color of clearance lamps on the front of the vehicle must be?

The color of clearance lamps on the front of a vehicle should be amber to comply with safety regulations. Amber lights are used to signal the presence and width of a vehicle, improving visibility and awareness for other drivers. This color is recognized universally and serves a crucial function in enhancing road safety, particularly in conditions of limited visibility.

While other colors like red and white have specific uses—red being typically reserved for taillights and emergency vehicles, and white usually associated with headlights—amber specifically denotes clearance and marker lights. Blue is typically reserved for law enforcement and emergency responders and is not appropriate for standard vehicle lighting in this context. Thus, the specification for clearance lamps to be amber aligns with both state and national standards for vehicle lighting.
