Is it UK widespread and what the future holds for all?  :-\
Bet the repair shops are rubbing their hands and the insurance companies developing new 'sorry but we cannot pay' excuses........

<sigh> More idiots driving round with their fog lights on for the next few months, until they finally remember what that little orange light means. ::)

That really does my head in...these idiots that drive around with fog lights on >:( How many times have you been dazzled on motorways, with
idiots using foglights in a barely visable mist or a slight drizzle. I thought that there was a law about visability and the use of fog lights ???
