I can't be the only one noticing this. At first I thought it was just new cars doing it (faulty automatic lights maybe?) but I see a lot of older cars without auto lights doing it too.
What is this, a new trend? Seems stupid.
EDIT: Turns out that's the safer way to drive and I am the stupid one haha.
My car has driving lights that always stay on when it's turned on, I remember learning in driver safety class headlights help increase visibility during the day, meaning other cars seeing you.
Oh, well that makes sense.
They told us driving with lights on reduced accidents by 30%. Don't know if it was true, but I know it helps me when other drivers have their lights on in the day, particularly silver and white vehicles.
If it's safer maybe I should start doing it too.
In some countries it's even mandatory (like in Bulgaria)
My car is the opposite. If you turn the lights on during the day, the speedometer and tachometer get too dark to see so you can't have the lights on during the day and know how fast you're going.
