Is it state law that you have to have your running lights on 30 minutes after sunrise ( and 30 minutes before sunset)? I can't find the law.

I think that it's 15, but that is just what I was told, so that is what I do.

I just asked my little cousin, she is a game warden in Del Rio. It is 30 min before sunrise and on again 30 min before sunset.
See you on the lake and have a great day!

Either way... I turn them on when it's until after the sun comes up and way before sunset just to be on the safe side and even in the Fog!

Lot of folks on fork dont know this law either.  The number of boats out at dark and shortly after with no lights on was sickening.
