Hi,
Which was the general attitude of the majority of motorists in the UK years
ago. Thankfully, this has been turned around and it's now only a minority who
drive in poor conditions and bad light without proper lights on.
We also put lights on during daylight hours if it's raining. Having said that,
we do still get the idiots who drive with a rear fog light on in rain at
night.
