but if they were to come on with your main beam no-one would know any different, because if someone came the other way dip your lights and off they go,
if your that way inclined to use your fogs as look at me lights then you are asking for trouble as has been said

Mr Plod, parked in his car, would see them, as you don't "dip" for parked cars do you... voila .. a "moving traffic offence" ... he can "do" you for the lights, and demand you "blow in the bag" ...

And does anyone who drives an Omega really want to be impersonating Saxo-driving-backwards-baseball-cap-wearing-foglights-on-in-all-weather chavs?  lol

Yes, I usually refer to them as 'tosser lights'.....when being followed by somebody with front fogs on I sometimes stick my rears on.

If they then use full beam its great watching thier face as you raise the sun blind!  :y

Would be a really good idea if you could just upgrade the bulbs in the rear foglights to something really bright !!! some cars do seem to have ultra bright rear fogs..( or maybe the old style reversing light on the Escort Mexicos.55watt standard spot light) just would look a bit naff on rear bumper

wig wag is what you need for sorting out saxo muppets they crap there pants when the fogs start flashing

the police have new powers for dealing with saxo paxos its called a Section 59 Anti Social Use Of a Vehicle Order

bit pointless the fogs on the omega are not that good the main beam is good enough
