response: "Response from the Ministry of Infrastructure\nAccording to Article 71(1)\
  \ of the Road Traffic Rules Act (Official Journal of the Republic of Slovenia, No\
  \ 82/13 - official consolidated text and 68/16), the driver of a motor vehicle or\
  \ a group of vehicles must drive in road traffic with daytime running lights or\
  \ headlights switched on. UN/ECE Regulation No 48 lays down all the requirements\
  \ for the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on vehicles. This\
  \ Regulation, in paragraph 6.19.7. concerning the electrical wiring, stipulates\
  \ that daytime running lamps shall be switched on independently and shall not be\
  \ switched on at the same time as the front and rear position lamps, the position\
  \ lamps, the side-marker lamps and the rear registration plate lamps. These are\
  \ the requirements of the UN/ECE international regulation in force in the Republic\
  \ of Slovenia, under which manufacturers manufacture and type-approve vehicles that\
  \ can be put into circulation in the European Union and in other countries that\
  \ recognise the UN/ECE international regulations.\nArticle 71(4) of the Road Traffic\
  \ Rules Act also stipulates that in reduced visibility, the driver must use dipped-beam\
  \ headlamps or fog lamps or a combination of these headlamps.  \n "
