Es como cuando usas una linterna en la oscuridad; si no tienes luz, la gente no te verá y podría chocar contigo.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina a Juan, un agricultor en Maryland, que trabaja en su campo al atardecer. Para asegurarse de que los coches no lo choquen mientras él conduce su tractor, tiene que tener luces rojas en la parte trasera y luces delanteras que iluminen bien el camino.
