Indiana § 9-19-6-9

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Title 9: MOTOR VEHICLES
• Art. 19: MOTOR VEHICLE EQUIPMENT
• Ch. 6: Lights, Reflectors, and Turn Signals

Text

(a) A reflector required by section 7 of this
chapter must be mounted at a height not less than twenty-four (24)
inches and not more than sixty (60) inches above the ground on which
the vehicle stands. However, if the highest part of the permanent
structure of the vehicle is less than twenty-four (24) inches, the
reflector must be mounted as high as that part of the permanent
structure will permit. The rear reflectors on a pole trailer may be
mounted on each side of the bolster or load. A required red reflector on
the rear of a vehicle may be incorporated with the tail lamp, but the
reflector must meet all the other reflector requirements of this chapter.
(b) A clearance lamp must be mounted on the permanent structure
of a vehicle in such a manner as to indicate the vehicle's extreme width
and as near the top of the vehicle as practicable. A clearance lamp and
side marker lamp may be mounted in combination, provided
illumination is given as required in this chapter with reference to both
lamps.
