i'm the exact opposite, unless it's sunny out, i almost always have at least my clearance (parking) lights on...guess it comes from being a truck driver....


...routine: start the C12 cat under the hood of my KW, switch on the lights (3 switches, not including fogs), release the brakes, shift into low and hammer down

 

Here's my problem with daytime running lights on cars. Being a motorcyclist, where bikes have had always-on lighting since 1973, they give us more visibility to motorists. With newer cars now having their headlights on all the time it makes us motorcyclists less noticeable because we blend in with those cars.

 

makes sense...

...i didn't know bikes have always on lights....

 

that's probably exactly what is going on there. all the extra wires are probably his way of fooling the pcm into thinking that the little box is working right.
you've never passed a motorcycle during the day?

 

I think he meant,he didn't know that their lights came on automaticly when the bike is started up.

 

And people wonder why some bikes are so loud. It is so hopefully we are noticed by other drivers. Pretty soon we will all be wearing reflector vests and sporting orange flags on our bikes.lol

 

yea i have, i just don't pay attention to the headlights

 

i've been blinded by quite a few so i know for sure. i think so many of them do blind me because they had their high beam on the night before and just forget about it the next day or something. then there's the cruiser bikes that have the flashing headlight that seems like it has a screwey charging system or something, those ones suck too.

 

I think that DRLs are the dumbest things ever concieved. Well, at least in this country. And then there are the idiots who purposly drive with their headlights on. I saw a guy the other day who had all of his lights on, Lows, Highs, and fogs. I can ****ing see you, dumbass!

 

But you definitely saw them, didn't you? FYI, modulating headlights are illegal here in CA.
