This function is used to find out whether the lights of the vehicle are on.

[[{{{image}}}|link=|]] Note:
  • This is different to getVehicleOverrideLights because this function will return true if the lights were turned on by natural causes.
  • Unless setVehicleOverrideLights is used, vehicles always automatically disable their lights at 06:25 and enable them at 20:26.

Syntax
