See them at night with no rear lights. Go past, drl's are on. So bright I guess the driver thinks the headlights are on.

Not seen any with no front lights though.

This boils my piss.

|Scenario of me and some oppstard on the Motorway|

Bad weather (so daylight but terrible rain)

I'm approaching you at a reasonable speed on the motorway, I can't see you because you have nothing on your arse saying "I'm Here".  I move into Lane 2 to overtake and then notice you have a fully illuminated dash with some gay lights showing up front........ nothing on the back of the car!!!!!!!!!

There has to be a review of the law - This is absolutely dangerous!

What do you mean "you" ?

Not you, you berk!  ;D

You, as in "You, the average tit who owns a new car and can't work out what the headlight switch does, because it does it all for you"  :y

That'll be dbug's mates that have the AUTO lights off .......  ??? ??? ;D ;D

Think you're confusing auto lights with drls ;)  Mines also got drls but these are also turned off - waste of time, use your common sense to switch lights on to suit the conditions at the time ;)

Common sense seems to be in short supply, hence everything going automatic!  ::)  ;)

Yep the Jag has dashboard lights lit all the time, but auto lights tell me lights are off when it thinks they should be on (I've turned the auto lights feature off so as it doesn't turn them on, but just warns) - like to turn them on myself as there are few things I've still got control of manually ;)

Put them on bloody AUTO & leave the switch alone!  ::) ::) ::)
On the wifes car, on auto, they come on when you pull under a filling station canopy, in multi-storey car parks or if there is a dangerous looking cloud anywhere near the sun. ;D
