Foggy Today
« on: 13 February 2008, 19:00:16 »
Well foggy today - hate

Motorists who drive on sidelights or no lights at all - saw both this morning
Tw8ts who keep their rear fogs on when your just behind them - seems like about 60% of motorists are tw8ts!
Idiots that drive at 2mph and keep braking when its safe to drive somewhat faster

Feel better now i've had my moan :y

Had to follow a tractor through 2 towns b/c too foggy to pass.  >:(

Yes, saw an idiot in a big Jag with no lights on whatsoever.  Many BMW's have dim rear fogs thankfully, since they're always on.  ::)

I must be a Tw*t then, cos when its foggy i have my fogs ON..........BE SEEN, not rear ended. I dont turn off my fogs when cars approach from the rear,  ;) if you turned them off everytime a vehicle approached you would be forever pressing the button.

Rear fog lights cause more problems than they solve... all they do is mask the brake lights and create loads of glare >:(

If people can't see you with your headlights/tail lights on, then they're probably going to hit a wall/tree/other non-illuminated object anyway. I'd be quite happy to have NO fog lights on any cars, maybe that way people will drive a little more appropriately to the conditions. They seem to get by just fine without them in Japan, the US, and countless other countries.

Exactly right, but its not the fog lights that are the problem its the dippys that dont drive according to road conditions.

Is it possible that if the rear fog lights are blinding you, you are too close to the car in front? ;)
