Having driven 3900 miles for the holidays to see family, 1000%. Regular lights (edit: on modern cars) are too intense but also when did the majority of drivers at night simply never turn off brights? It is fucking maddening!
Their “Safety for me but not for thee.” is so incorrect. Everyone is less safe.
Auto brights are so poorly coded, the managers who shipped those projects should be shot into the sun. But driving that long I had a lot of time to observe and ruminate. There are so many cars older than the industry’s adoption of auto brights that I’m lead to believe that people just leave them on, period. No cop is going to pull anyone over for it so everyone just does it.
No, it’s always older cars like Civics, Corollas and Hyundais with older halogen headlights that are always driving with the high beams on. I flash so many of these morons.
I’ve toyed with the idea of putting a light bar on the back of my sedan just so I can project the power of the sun back into those huge trucks and suvs that have lights mounted 5 feet up.
Rear fog lights are made so that other cars can see you from further away in the fog. They are red and function basically as brighter position lights. While they can be mounted in the bumper, it is not unusual for them to be in the same position as the position lights, as their purpose is the same (making you seen). Since they are made for making you visible in thick fog, they are very bright, and it is illegal in many places to use them without reason as it can blind the driver behind you in regular conditions.
Real life is so much brighter than this image shows
Every car is a raised SUV with sun gods for headlights
We need actual automative regulations

Half the time it’s their car auto activating brights
They’re supposed to have sensors that deactivate the brights if it sees oncoming light but they simply don’t work…
Otherwise it’s exactly as you say

Cop probably cant tell the difference between a new car with normal headlights and an old car with their brights on
Why? He’s blinded 😆

Every car I’ve been in with them is overzealous in turning off to the point that they’re useless with much traffic at all.
It’s most likely not auto brights but humans not so brights
🤷♀️ My brother and dad both have cars that don’t turn them off properly and they’re different makes and models so I dunno

Rear fog lights do exist in plenty of models…

Exactly, fucking sucks.
I hope every piece of shit who drives one of those is flayed alive and forced to eat its own fried testicles/labia
