when do you use your headlights?

[4X4 UFO]

I may be the only one who feels this way, but I find high beams in my eyes to be just as irritating in the daytime as they are at night. If you feel that you must run headlights in the daytime, maybe low beams are the way to go. I'm not entirely convinced that DRL's do any good any way. If the oncoming "driver" is so distracted that he can't see something the size of a car or truck, I'm not sure that headlights are going to help.
Just my two cents.

The whole DLR lights come from idiots not having the common sense to turn the lights on when raining or overcast and a small silver car on gray pavement in a hard rain storm can be invisible. Remember all our laws are written seem to be for the most stupid or the most evil

You make a good point. I still think that low beams are the way to go, though. I just can't see the need for shining high beams into oncoming traffic, whether it's day, night, or in between........

the reason i drive with mine on all the time is for glare conditions.. when you are driving with your back to the sun, its really hard for someone to see you with the sun in your eyes.. headlights make it tons easier

Having a nice set of fog lights does the job.

In heavy rain,fog or where there's no much of light post head lights is the right action to take.

I bearly use my head lights because i don't drive at night that much,but my fog lights are on any time the horse is in motion no matter what.

I upgrade my fog light bulbs last week from the OEM 3.5v to 4.9v since one of the bulbs blow off.

They looks very good

Sorry, most have heard this rant before...

But it's civilization in general, with a substantial helping of a society ever more willing to sue the other party involved, rather than take responsibility for their own actions, that is the problem here...

Making society in general ALMOST idiot proof, has taken natural selection out of the game, allowing more & more "questionable" genetic material into the shallow end...yeah, I know, not the correct opinion to have is this day & age......

Don't get me started,my head wants to explode I'll just say... X a ...gazillon

We may not be able to clean up the gene pool, but we could make the requirements and testing for a driver's license difficult enough to keep most of the "shallow-enders" from clogging the roadways.....

[Moncha]

That would take a whole new way of thinking... Driving is now considered (Unofficially) a right not a privledge.

True enough! From what I can tell, getting a license (in my state) to be a hairdresser is much more difficult than what's required to hustle two tons of metal and plastic down the highway at 70 mph!

But, can they run with scissors?

Only Crayola scissors.
