Speed Limit Question

[one66stang]

Can anyone show me where the law defines "day" and "Night" when it pertains to the speed limit?

I currently use the 30 min before and after as we use in hunting.

Nighttime is half an hour after sunset to half an hour before sunrise.

I think that is what he is referring too. What is the official line to determine when the limit drops 5mph

When my automatic headlights come on I slow down.
When they go off I speed up.

X2. I figure if I need my headlights on to see, I need to slow down.

The law as I remember for headlights is anytime visibility iss less than 1500' that is a pretty broad time frame IMO
