Which one is the"fast" lane?Even worse there's a special class of idiot who will do this on the motorway despite the fast lane being clear.
That's not the case for all, I have one and it's advised by health care professionals, idea being in an emergency the services know to look for a baby or child.I take the "baby on board" as a warning sign to other motorists to stay well clear of that car as they don;t know how to drive properly and will make insane stupid decisions.
I pass one most mornings on my way to work, no lights and wearing black, flash him everyone as well and he still hasn't got the idea, you really can't see him until your too close to do anything should he swerve or cut in front of you.Not just cars, I see cyclists in fog with no lights or sometimes not even high viz as well. It's suicidal.
I honestly think they should get rid of the current switch for lights and replace it with one that has the option of auto or dipped that way they'd always be on when needed.This morning reminded me of one of my biggest pet peeves - poor lighting discipline. We had thick fog this morning, thick enough to need fog lights when I drove to the gym. Yet I still saw far too many cars looming out of the fog with absolutely no lights on whatsoever. It boggles my mind how anyone can quite clearly see how poor visibility is, yet not have the wherewithal to put at least their sidelights on.

Yea I've never understood why the rears don't come on. I've had times in my car where I thought it was dark enough for lights but they hadn't come on. I do think some problems are to do with the over active speed kills, which seems to make all other standards deteriorate, even minor ones like indicating or being in the correct lane. I realise speeding is the easy one to monitor with the others actually taking some work.That still wouldn't work all the time though. Even in thick fog, it's not always dark enough to trigger my lights to come on automatically. I think it would be better to just have the tail lights come on with the DRLs. That way you always have at least some lighting at both front and rear.
But in general, yes, not a bad idea. I leave my lights on auto almost constantly, or turn them on manually in poor weather.

Now do Road TaxThat would be the colloquial name for the inner most lane that typically holds the fastest moving vehicles.

Can confirm it does not have this effect. Parking ding immunity not activatedthe car a wide berth (and don't park anywhere within a 100m radius!)
Probably from someone else with the same bade, they cancel out . I know it's not fun getting dings.Can confirm it does not have this effect. Parking ding immunity not activated
Says a lot when your speed limited to 55mph, weigh upto 44tons yet are frequently held up by cars doing 50 odd - on a motorway!
UK driving standards are getting worse but, are still very good compared to other places (Cyprus springs to mind!!)
