Late detection is the basic mechanism responsible for daytime collisions. One goal of this report is to review evidence concerning the effectiveness of daytime running lights (DRLs) to increase vehicle conspicuity, and thereby facilitate vehicle detection and reduce the number of daytime collisions (including collisions between cars and unprotected road users). Another goal is to recommend light characteristics of dedicated DRLs. The available accident studies indicate that DRLs are effective in reducing the number of daytime collisions. Furthermore, this reduction is larger for pedestrians and cyclists than for motor vehicles.
