i think a lot of folks confuse 'driving lights' with 'fog lamps'. One is a spot light, the other is a coloured, wide-angle flood lamp with minimal vertical dispertion.
In Qld, only 'fog lamps' can be wired to power up on low-beam - but should only be used in rain/fog to increase safety and visibility (of your car and objects on the road). they're not be used in general driving conditions.
i'm not sure how many of youz folk drive around the burbs with super bright fog/driving lamps on, but it pisses me off. They produce massive amounts of (dangerous) glare. Most of the lights wired up as 'fog lamps' are just cheap-as-shit halogens floods from supacheap/kmart/other.
Seeing as a lot up of drive sportz cars with seats lower to the ground than usual cars, we're already more likely to be blinded by pooly adjusted headlghts - please don't add to that light pollution with irritating mini-floodlights.
