I know so many of you hate the things BUT there is a time and a place.
So how many of you guys have seen people in the thick fog of the last few days with no lights on at all. Normally its a silver repmobile tanking along at 90 or this morning. The last car in a stationary traffic queue without even working brake lamps.

Now here is one thing that really gets up my nose and I am glad its not me. THe last few mornings have been foggy and the amount of vehicles without lights on at all is unreal! First thing I do when visibility is slightly poor is reach for the lights. It might not help me see where I am going but at least others can see me

Was on M4 this morning on way to work, in the middle lane as inside lane was for coming off at a junction and I got undertaken by a black Audi A6 that then switched into the fast lane to tailgate some guy before he pulled over and then the A6 sped off. All this was no lights on :shock:

Last night I almost parked my rig on top of some muppet.
Picture the scene: small car (focus, I would say) towing a people carrier on an "A" frame. Nothing wrong so far, let's go for the rest of the scenario: 0300, thick fog, and, best of all, no lights on the friggin' towed vehicle.
The complete idiot was doing about 25mph on the M1. By the time I could see the lights on the small car past the "trailer", I was almost on top of him. At least, I know that the ABS on my unit and on the trailer I was pulling works a treat.
