Automobile lights can be hard to control. The time to learn how to control your car's lights is before you come to the star party. It is hard learn how to control the lights in the middle of a dark night in Landers. Look in the manual or talk to the dealer. Other drivers may have to locate the switch, fuse, or relay that controls these lights.
Some cars have daytime headlights or automatic headlights that are always on.
Sometimes these can be shut off by pulling up one or two notches on the parking brake. If not, the driver has a few choices. One could just forego driving at night. Or, one could tape opaque material over the lights. Another alternative is to park down the road.
