What a great example of why DRL's are wrong. Hey, it looks like a study. People who love to quote studies should love this one.

You are a lot of fun to send notes to, but I must stop now. LOL

No, not a point, a problem.

 

You should start legislation that all pedestrians will now be required to wear a orange safety vest at all times. Why you may ask, because somewhere, somebody conducted a study that shows it will save lives. Oh ya, and blink lights on the vests at night.

 

How bout a requirement to wear a mouth piece when riding a bike. Bet there is a study somewhere that shows it will save on dental related injury's during bike accidents. You see it never ends.

 

Eye protection while skate boarding so you don't get a bug in your eye and run into someone or there property (parked car).

 

A law that kids age 17 and younger must wear hearing protection while traveling in a convertible top down at highway speed due to noise levels being to high. The parent can drive the car and do as the please, but we better make a law for the kids.

 

 

And if "Don't like my preaching...don't read it." LOL lighten up man.

TLS, you may have a problem. I guess safety is your buzz. Lets all push for mandated yearly drivers lic testing for those over 65 or 70. Now that is a real safety issue.

Most "driver" oriented people don't want there car controling aspects like lighting, electronic traction control (trac control is fine, just give me a switch to turn it off when I want to), gear shifting, etc. It's more fun and enjoyable. It may be foolish, but the goverment gets carried away with so many mandated safety requirements. Leave my head lights alone. And when you on the road (TLS), stay alert, stay alive.

I am not a fan of DRL's. Seems to me that it can be very dangerous driving at night with no tail lights (done it twice in 1 week). Being military I also like being able to kill my headlights (at my choosing) while approaching check points. I don't need to directly control my air fuel mixture (not that there is anything wrong with that - lol), but lkeave the headlights to me.

I've done it twice in my first week.

 

The other night I thought about it, when I drove 10 miles on the highway forgetting to turn on my headlights Without DRLs I won't forget
