Less illumination may reduce the ability of the driver to read overhead signs when driving at night.

Exterior Lighting — Headlights

Summary

Certain passenger vehicles do not conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." Some of these vehicles do not meet the overhead sign illumination requirements.
