Turn your lights on!

Same goes for cyclists!

Fog lights used as "passive turning lights" also winds me up. Using fog lights when it's not foggy is not allowed so I'm not sure how manufactures got away with it.

A possible argument for having lights on all the time mebbe?

For me, it's parking lights (sidelights) whilst driving. You've clearly seen you need lights on, but it's not fully dark, so let's drive with parking lights on :rolleyes:

Like using dipped beams costs so much more.

Fog lights when it's not foggy bugs me, but people not turning rear fog lights off when I have closed to a few meters from you really boils my urine. I'm a few meters behind you - you really don't now need those high intensity rear lights on now - I'm right near you and they're now blinding and make it difficult to tell when you're braking. TURN THEM OFF ALREADY :mad:

My A3 doesn't inform me via the dash that my lights are on like my Corsa did, so I normally just end up forgetting to turn them off.

I love playing the "You've left your rear fog light on" game. Over take, slow down, spam the rear fog light button.

The problem with that game, you never find out if you've won

I've had at least 2 people thank me while playing the game.

Seriously??

You're obviously much better at it than me :cool:

Maybe they are solar powered lights and they don't work because there is less light in the winter.

I do a lot of driving for work so come across a lot of morons.

I have seen an increasing number of people with no lights on though, even after it is completely dark, makes me wonder how they don't notice how they can't see where they're going.

Maybe the Terminator is driving ...

I'm limited to playing the game at work

Though if someone has their fog lights on i tend to flash them

I don't do a lot of driving for work, but still come across a lot of morons :/

PSA: If it is dark, please take your ****ing foot off the brake pedal and use the handbrake. Be considerate to the driver behind.

Auto lights for the win

Or get out of your damn car and use the bus. No worries at all then!

What - with a 5 year old, a 1 year old and no bus service where we live? That'll work well :rolleyes:

So many people drive without lights or just with DRLs thinking it's okay, and / or fog lights :mad:

Street lights, it's the only way I know
