"Parking lights" (standing lamps or position lights) are lights that come on with or without the headlights to mark the location of the car in the dark. The parking lights in the rear are usually referred to as the "tail lights". The lights on the side are usually called "side markers".
"Parking lights" are incorporated into:
* Side Marker Lamps * Front Combination Lamp * Rear Combination Lamp (tail lights)
