What's with the fog lights?

with the volvos, as mentioned before, their headlights frost from within, and there's not a single thing a person can do about it. putting on the fog lights adds a little extra to a darkened roadway. which would you prefer to have in your eyes: high beams or fog lights with the dim headlights? personally, i'd rather have somebody driving with their fog lights on. as for driving with them on during a sunny DAY, i don't get it. maybe they've forgotten that their fog lights were turned on.

 

I drive a daycab Vulva with a deer killer on front of it and I have no need for fog/driving lights. IMO, it's an experience thing.

 

the current north american swedish mobile's headlights are frosted. driving along the 152 between santa nella and gilroy, ca early this morning was pretty gnarly. i could have used a little extra light. high beams weren't happening since there was a crapload of eastbound traffic.

 

+ 1 They should be adjusted properly just like the 4 wheelers that have 1 beam straight to your sight. Other than i could careless if they have them on specially if theyre white, heck i like them better than the christmas trees super truckers drive

 

The funny thing about “Driving lights” is, only our rookie drivers run them. Well,,,, except for Bill,,,, he’s just blind.

 

when the farmer down the road gave me a job learning how to drive before he cut me loose, he said people that use fog light or bright are &^%$%^$# ers,WHOOSIES.

 

The biggest misconception is that fog lights are always yellow. The term fog and/or driving refers not to the color but the pattern of the lens. Driving puts out a pencil beam, fog a very wide trapezoidal type pattern. Fogs are almost always white nowadays because studies showed that white light allowed the driver to see better than amber. Amber soes offer a slight advantage in that other motorists notice them sooner than white. So... White to see, amber to be seen.

 

Driver didn't you know, fog lights keep fog away if you keep them on!

 

And here all this time I thought it was drivers attempting the impossible; i.e., trying to look cool in a Swift truck!
