FOG! Why do people drive with out lights on!

[Auric Goldfinger]

Aren't your's set to come on when you're parking ?

Only the fronts when I have my lights on and select reverse on the DSG. It's a feature on the car.

Yes it is odd the logic on that one, I have enabled cornering Fogs on mine, when reversing it puts both front fogs on.

It's supposed to be an aid when parking/reversing, it's lights up the front. bit of a gimmick but it looks cool

FOG! Why do people drive with out lights on!

same reason why people drive with their fog lights on with no fog...... Their complete bell ends

I was on the motorway a few week back at night in thick fog and I went down to just side lights as it was better for seeing,

a BMW X5 went flying past with all his lights on with the white lines between his wheels for sight, he was all over the place

[ChrisRs]

I believe this is true too.........Its illegal to drive in Fog with sidelights alone

[gadgetman]

Even better if the car is white or silver

Drive to work this morning...

Set off with no lights head up M62 towards Rishworth

Sidelights on as it gets murky

Bit higher up and headlights on as the fog (that's been there three days) descends

Get up to Rishworth Moor and fogs on as you couldn't see 50 yards (saw fire engines with burning truck was only when I drove further down the motorway I saw the police had closed lanes...)

I do love Yorkshire weather (being from Lancs)

Correct Chris.

It says it somewhere in the Highway Code.

Thus disabling your rear fog light(s). Since you have a vRS, you've got front fogs, so why not use them in the conditions they are designed for?

Sorry, but I thought the thread was about idiots with NO lights on, not fog lights.

*sigh*

Probably the worlds most pointless post. Besides this one.

On another note though, I had to smile at the actions of a motorway womble the other day on the M4. In pouring rain and terrible spray/visibility, the womble in his Land Rover or whatever they drive was probably the only car I saw without any form of lights on. Nice to see taxpayer money going to good use
