Cornering lights

Summary
Cornering lights are white colored lights usually fitted into the bumper bar and are designed to provide side light when the vehicle is turning corners.

To improve visibility during night driving, some vehicle manufacturers provide cornering lights.

Cornering lights are white colored lights usually fitted into the bumper bar and are designed to provide side light when the vehicle is turning corners.

The additional lighting provided by cornering lights helps the driver to see the curb and any obstacles that may not be illuminated by the headlights.

Cornering lights turn on only when the headlights and turn signal switches are on, so they only come on when the vehicle is turning the corner, and turn off automatically when the turn signal turns off.
