As I intimated I think I could only see the car as it obscured the lights of vehicles in front of it rather than seeing the actual car itself. Distracting as you try to work out what it is up ahead.
Don't rear light clusters have a reflector built into them anymore?I'm pretty sure my saab has although it's fairly old.
Back when DRLs were being introduced, you couldn't have a thread bar someone would be moaning about how they're too bright or completely unnecessary or whatever.
The number of times since then when I've seen a car (my favourite are the invisible gray ones in rain spray), who are only made visible by their DRLs.
I think we should have a legal requirement of some rearward lights too because it's beyond Joe Public's ability to do the sensible thing themselves in some cases.

To be fair, they are too bright though. As evidenced by someone being able to drive at night time with their lights off and the DRLs illuminating the road enough for them to see. That would make them NRLs!The number of times since then when I've seen a car (my favourite are the invisible gray ones in rain spray), who are only made visible by their DRLs.

As for your invisible grey cars - how did anyone cope before DRLs? The roads must have been impossible to navigate due to all the crashes involving grey cars in the rain.
