Fog Lights....

[Gibson70]

Chaps,

It appears that there is growing number of people who put their fog lights ON when the weather is clear with NO fog in sight....

Is it :-

- Showing off ?
- Makes the car look good ?
- Cant see the road ?

[Mr2Mike]

They are tts. End thread.

[TheHeretic]

Can we have a fog light complaint sub forum?

[cuprabob]

Surprised no one has brought up this before :-)

[Eighteeteewhy]

Ye olde foglight thread time.

Don't get me started on those Knob Heads

They are idiots, although no fog light has ever so much as lightly stung my eyes I still think anyone who does it is a complete wker.

[jamei303]

You'd think they'd have invented automatic ones by now. You can get auto-dimming headlights ffs.

[Kurtcobain]

Just shoot them seriously..

As opposed to shooting them light-heartedly?

They are worse than just wkers.

They think DRLs look good, and are putting on their front fogs to also 'look good'.

The wkers.


With the rise in DRLs, getting fined for incorrect use of foglights is now practically impossible.

The wkers.

Not as bad as the both my headlamp bulbs are blown so i will use my foglights instead people.

[marshalla]

Are you sure they're fog lights and not driving lights ?

[pscl227]

Well actually people driving with their front fog lights on does actually help..

...Years ago you used to have to talk to people and get to know them before you could work out if they were a dick, now all you need to do is see them driving down the street!

[cslwannabe]

Agree with the above but haven't DRLs just essentially legalised this!?

Deffo fog lights because the rear lights are switched on in the evenings as they zoom past me in the overtaking lanes of the m5/m6/m40/m42 which ever one i happen to be travelling on the way back from working at customers premises

I think you're confusing driving lights with DRLs.

Although driving lights are very rare these days the rear lights would also be on.

I think drls have caused the increase in others thinking having extra lights on the front of their car is 'cool'.

I sometimes feel like flicking the full beam on or, if they're behind me, put my rear fog on but just ignore it instead.

[TopGear7]

Do people just moan about them online and call people who do this obscene names just because it is a cool thing to do?

Reason I say this is considering that 50% of the cars I see on the road have DRL's, I can't see how they are any different. They certainly don't effect me.

While I never use my fog lights, as I see it as a pointless thing to do. Nonetheless I do not see how you people can get so riled up over it. People driving with full beams, yeah, huge wkers. Foglights? Doesn't effect me, couldn't care less.
