Which color is required for the turn signal lights during an inspection?

The requirement for turn signal lights to be amber or orange is based on both safety and regulatory standards. Amber or orange lights are easily distinguishable from other vehicle lights, which helps prevent confusion among other drivers. These colors are specifically designated for signaling intent to turn or change lanes, providing clear communication on the road.

Having a consistent color for turn signals promotes better awareness and helps maintain safety on the streets, as drivers understand that amber or orange lights indicate a vehicle's intention to maneuver. Other colors, such as red or blue, are commonly used for different purposes, such as brake lights or emergency vehicles, and can lead to misunderstanding if used for turn signals. Therefore, using amber or orange for turn signals is the correct standard during inspections.
