de nacht

Translation

There is no exact translation; the rendering below is approximate.

night, the period from sunset to sunrise

The period between sunset and sunrise (art. 1). By night dipped beam is compulsory (art. 32), and anyone stationary outside a built-up area on the carriageway, a lay-by or a hard shoulder shows sidelights and tail lights (art. 38). Night therefore begins at sunset, not when it starts to feel dark.
