But what really gets my goat is people who use their side lights when it's foggy or dawn/dusk. They are completely ineffective.
Because the dash lights up when side lights are on people will forget to switch to dipped when it gets dark.
Side lights should be banned as they have no purpose whatsoever.
YES and this is the reason that use of side lights when driving in some countries, ie Holland, is forbidden.
Manufactures have to be much more clever then the are.... The dashboard light must not be on when using side lights while driving.

I don't understand this. It's the root of this problem.

Postscript : Side lights are only there to be used for parking (city lights)
