i absolutely, fucking hate cars coming towards me with un-dipped lights.
In a builtup area or with facing traffic the only forward facing lights on in a car should be the headlights on low-beam and the parking lights - plus the indicators if you are turning.
High-beam should only be used when there is no oncoming traffic or it's further than 200m away. Driving lights & spotlights should only be used with high-beam.
Driving lights are usually nothing more than undimmed spotlights
Fog lamps should be downward facing, colour-tinted and only used in extreme weather
There's little need for either as:
-most parts of australia get like 2 or 3 days of think fog per year
-most highways are not divided so you cant have undipped driving lights on legally or safely
If you do drive around the burbs and highways with "driving lights" on while in traffic - then you're a tool.
It's dangerous to other road users as it causes excessive glare, distracts driver attention and makes dimly light objects (Like pedestrians and objects on the road) mreo difficult to see and avoid.
If you want people to see you, put the lights on legally.
