Too bad having DRLs don't actually make anything safer and can actually cause more problems than they solve.

The reason they "work" in Canada and Sweden is that large parts of those countries are far to the north and have a large percentage of their daylight time actually being dusk like conditions.

FYI: If you want to make something invisible during bright daylight, you put bright lights on them.
80% of the Canadian population lies within 150km of the Canada/US border - the 49th Parallel, which is on the same latitude as Paris.
Yes, I know. I just means that the light in Canada is similar to that in the U.K. That's why I quoted "work" because it is just what the Canadians state, not that its a fact. I also wasn't trying to prove anything one way or the other about northern countries that don't have it. It just means using data based on their experience doesn't apply to the vast majority of the planet that's south of there, like the US.
Sorry, I was just being a pain in the ass anyway... smile
That's OK. I never mind when people do what they are good at.smilesmile
