Note to Morons...

You do not get extra points for being the last driver on the road to turn on headlights in the evening!

Side note: Those little lights that come on at the first position of the switch are called 'parking lights'. 'Park', as in 'motionless'. They are not 'driving' lights.

Driving with parking lights is worse than driving with no lights. Most parking lights are too small (assuming the bulbs aren't burned out. I already assume you never check them) to show up against a bright morning or evening sky. Dashboard lights come on, though, and now you can see the gauges (assuming you ever look at them), and you don't realize your big lights aren't on until it's really dark.

One more thing, obvious to anyone who pays attention (which is why I'm explaining it to you): You need headlights on most when you can see best. That's because you have the sun at your back, shining directly on everything you're looking at, including those oncoming drivers with sun shades down and sun glasses on. You can see them just fine, but they can not see you in the glare of the sun through dirty windshields--especially if cars ahead of and behind you do have headlights on.

Ever wonder why more accidents happen in morning and evening? I didn't think so.
