Getting really hacked off with the amount of idiots on the roads without DRLs with fog lights on, it's ridiculous!
Every single old taxi, MPV tough guy in his Picasso and idiots in older BMWs and VWs
Has the law changed on this or do they see people with DRLs and get jealous?
Rant over....must be getting old

Wow it's been a while since we had a fog light thread.
M135i mx5 don't finance cars, don't buy new cars, use the 10k for a house deposit. Cheap tyres, potholes, baby on board stickers.
You missed out the 335d (remapped, of course).M135i mx5 don't finance cars, don't buy new cars, use the 10k for a house deposit. Cheap tyres, potholes, baby on board stickers.

Gt86 needs a turbo and more power, excellent just what we want a low power easy drift car on small wheels, let's not buy it
As a genuine question, what do DRL`s actually do?
I know that some countries required lights at the front, to indicate when a vehicle is running. Not sure, but I think it was Volvo who started this off.
But in practical terms if visibility is bad enough to require lights, they would have to be headlights
and / or fog lights.
DRL`s are not likely to be good enough in these conditions. It is not as if they actually light up much of the road ahead.
I have them on my car, and frankly cannot see why they are fitted to it, they don't seem to actually do anything!
Where light levels and visibility are good, it ought to be possible for other drivers, pedestrians etc
to see vehicles quite clearly, without the need for DRL`s. So as genuine question, why do manufacturers go to the bother of fitting DRL`s to their products?

Back on topic, I get more annoyed by people who drive around in the fog without any lights at all!
Same, esp silver/white cars.As for foglights being used "incorrectly" all the time, get over it
For the record I don't use mine unless they are needed, OP I'm sure there are other things in your life more important than foglights to be blowing a seal over!
Very good.
