headlamps
Car's forward lights
Headlamps are the forward-facing lights on a vehicle, designed to illuminate the road ahead.
The term is interchangeable with headlights in automotive contexts.
Headlamp also refers to a light worn on the head, typically with an elastic strap: She strapped on her headlamp before entering the cave.
Useful when hands-free illumination is needed—camping, mining, spelunking.
