Daytime Running Lights - DRL's ?

[Fouga]

Hi All,

This is my first post in this section.

I was wondering what is the view here regarding the use of dipped headlights during daytime hours as a safety aid when driving?

I recall reading somewhere that by doing so you can reduce your chances of being involved in a traffic accident by 35% ???

I've being using daytime dipped lights on my Astra XE for a few years now and find that drivers tend to 'hold back' when exiting from side roads as you approach, etc ....which can only be a good thing!

Is this practice 'part and parcel' of Advanced Driving?


Regards,
Fouga.
