Which class of vehicles is allowed to carry a red light visible from the front?

Emergency vehicles are permitted to carry a red light that is visible from the front because these vehicles are specifically designed for critical situations that require immediate attention or response. The red light serves as a warning to other drivers and pedestrians, signaling the presence of a vehicle that may need to navigate through traffic quickly to reach an emergency scene. The use of such lights is regulated to ensure that they are only used by emergency services, such as police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances, to maintain safety on the roads and to provide clear indicators of urgency to the public.

In contrast, other types of vehicles, such as commercial motor vehicles, pleasure type motor vehicles, and non-commercial vehicles, do not have the same legal allowance to display red lights for visibility. This restriction helps to prevent confusion on the road and ensures that emergency vehicles can be easily recognized and granted the right-of-way during urgent situations.
