Except as hereinafter provided, the head lamps or the auxiliary driving lamps or combinations thereof on motor vehicles, other than motorcycles, shall be so arranged that the driver may control the selection between distributions of light projected to different elevations, subject to the following requirements and limitations:
(a)There shall be an uppermost distribution of light, or composite beam, so aimed and of such intensity as to reveal persons and vehicles ahead at a distance of at least five hundred feet for all conditions of loading.
(b)There shall be a lowermost distribution of light so aimed and of sufficient intensity to reveal persons and vehicles at a distance of at least one hundred feet ahead, and, on a straight level road under any condition of loading, none of the high-intensity portion of the beam shall be directed to strike the eyes of an approaching driver.
(c)Each new motor vehicle registered in this state which has multiple-beam road-lighting equipment shall be equipped with a beam indicator, which shall be lighted whenever the uppermost or upper distribution of light from the head lamps is in use. Such indicator shall be so designed and located that, when lighted, it will be readily visible without glare to the driver of the vehicle so equipped.
(d)Operation of a motor vehicle without the equipment required by this section shall be an infraction.
