Cornering Light
A cornering light illuminates the side when turning.
What is Cornering Light?
It is activated by indicator or steering. It may be part of fog lights. It works at low speed. Static cornering lights switch on a separate lamp, while dynamic bending lights swivel the main beam with the steering. Both improve visibility at junctions and in tight bends. Many modern LED headlights integrate the function into the main unit.
How it works
An extra lamp lights the turning area.
Why it matters for your car
Bulb failure may show a warning. It helps at junctions.
