There seemed to be about the same number of drivers using fog lights in the recent heavy foggy mornings as on any other morning, e.g. about 1 in 20 drivers....and turn OFF your fog lights when there is no fog. It never ceases to amaze the number of people out there who treat them like regular lights, I would really like to hear the rationale for doing this from someone who does it.
I wish people would turn on their car lights during rain, fog and poor visibilty. Driving back from Dublin today, it's scary how many people dont drive with their lights on when necessary. Are people afraid they might get charged on their ESB bill?? Com'mon people, think! turn on your lights!!!
Agreed, I drive a scooter to and from work, my lights cannot be turned off. They can be turned to a higher beam for really dark conditions and fog etc....
I would also add some cyclists to that list. I have passed a few this winter, with no lights, no hi-viz jacket (dressed in balck) no helmet, no gloves - pure bonkers!

Fog lights are for fog, not for when it is raining. Put on dipped headlights.
Can the guards do something about it.? Perhaps they should Fine people who dont turn their lights on and cyclists who dont have hi-viz jackets/lights on etc.
I think it is strange when cyclists where hi-viz jackets but have them covered with a bag on their back, what is the point in wearing it we cannot see it. Walkers aswell that do not bother wearing one on dark mornings and nights.
