At least (with most modern switchgear in cars these days) the fog lights won't automatically come on when they next start the car.

Its the light wars Snakey.

I've got more better brighter louder blingier cleverer stupid looking camp and as complicated as they can be lights than you, mere mortal, and as i have them you are going to look at them in wonder.

Said fog lights are among the very few lights the alleged driver has control of, you can't expect such important people to remember to cancel something that only affects the peasants squinting in awe, shirley.

Heavy with sarcasm for the type? yes they usually deserve it.

This isn't a new phonomenon, i had a vision of this new blinding future back in the lat 70's or early 80's when the latest range of disposable repmobile tat came with prviously unknown rear fog lights, just as now they had to be shown off, and i remember one bright clear dark evening driving back down a nice reflective wet M6 past B'ham in my lorry, literally the whole road as far as i could see ahead was a sea of bright red, the majority of new cars all had their rear fogs on, because well they could i suppose, idiots then begat idiots now.

In the North East, I bet chances are Nissan Duke/Note drivers ? They think it's cool to turn on the fog light. They really should drive another car if they want to be looked cool....

Some of them think it's all right to switch on the fog light because others do when in fact others are "DRL".

I loathe to see them but better than the cars without no light....
