For answer A
Traffic legislation does not allow any exception from the use of approved lights, regardless of the reason invoked (increased visibility, aesthetics etc.). Installing non-approved lights remains prohibited and sanctionable. Therefore, answer A is wrong, even if the purpose is increasing visibility.
Traffic legislation does not allow the driver to install according to his own criteria other lights, regardless of the reason, including that of better visibility at night. Visibility at night must be ensured exclusively through the lighting systems approved by design or approved by the competent authority. Therefore, answer B is wrong, the justification does not cancel the legal prohibition.
Owners of motor vehicles are not allowed to install on them lights of another color and intensity than those approved. Non-compliance with these prohibitions is considered a contravention and is sanctioned with the fine provided in the third sanction class and with the retention of the registration certificate, a replacement proof with the right of circulation for 15 days being issued.
