[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] Part of the problem is with the increasing number of trucks and SUVs on the road. Low beams or no low beams, their headlights are at about the same level as a car's rear-view mirrors. As for the rice rockets and their Xenon headlights, I'm willing to bet they don't know how to properly adjust them, going by the shafts of light they project -- they're not pointed down far enough usually. I'm not sure about the rest of the world, but the auxiliary lights alongside the main headlights are called "parking lights" here in the US. I know in California, at least, it's illegal to drive with just those on, day or night. Which is annoying to me, as I'd gotten in the habit of turning them on whenever I'm driving to act as running lights. Some cars have additional lights mounted on the front fenders that come on when you engage the turn signal to illuminate the direction you're turning. And for God's sake, don't use your high beams in the fog. The brighter the light, the more it reflects off the fog and the less visibility you'll have. Duh. Best thing to have in that case is yellow fog/driving lights mounted below or in your front bumper. --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
