Why do so many drivers feel the need to use foglights in well lit areas and in broad daylight??? If they're that blind they shouldn't be on the road.
Where I live 20-30% of drivers use them when they're not needed. I'll bet the taxi driver who was recently fined also had his headlights on which defeats the purpose.
"See and be seen" is all very well but if you blind other drivers they can see nothing. Also, the number of people who use foglights and headlights obviously don't realise the danger they pose. Given the right conditions (any main street in any town) they can have a strobe effect so anyone in an oncoming car can experience siezures or headaches. Anyone who suffers from any photo-sensitive condition will know what I mean.
Try turning the lights off. You'll be surprised how much more you can see, and not be blinding anyone coming towards you! You never know, they might hit you!!

thats the gayest shit ive ever read. ( digitalspy ? )

fog lights are set way to low to blind anyone, hid`s however, they do dazzle. people who moan about fog lights either are mixed up with hid`s or are to scared of the nasty policeman to use theirs therefore bitch about ppl that do.

i agree with you, but any 1 suffering from fits
should not be driving its the law, even if they are under control with drugs. they are obliged to tell dvla, they will not be able to drive till they are clear for 1 year.

MOSC either lives in Holland or East Anglia. Most of the UK is not flat and you must be an expert on gays going by your post! Also, if the cops catch you it's 3 points!!! HID's? Maybe that's what you should be doing and stop being a total prat!! Tell you what: I'll fit 4 Cibie Oscars to the front of my car and you and I will drive in opposite directions on the same road. You want dazzle?

I agree with GMB that people who suffer fits should not be driving, but how would a driver react if one of his passengers took a fit? And how would they get medical help?
