DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT. THOSE REAR FOGLIGHTS ARE NOT THAT BRIGHT, CERTAINLY NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO BE CALLED FOGLIGHTS. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO TRACE THE WIRES SO THAT I CAN MAKE THEM COME ON WITH MY DAYTIME FRONT RUNNING LIGHTS. (THEY ARE THE LAW IN CANADA)
BUT SINCE THIS IS CANADA, YOU WILL SEE EVERY CONFIGURATION OF DAYTIME LIGHTS IMAGINABLE. I FIGURE IF IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE LIGHTS ON THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE ( AND I THINK IT IS ) AT ALL TIMES THEN IT IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE REAR.
LOOK AT IT THIS WAY. MOST HEAD ON COLLISIONS ARE CAUSED BY ONE OR BOTH VEHICLES CROSSING THE LINE. VIRTUALLY NO REAR-ENDERS ARE CAUSED THAT WAY. THERE WOULD BE NO HEADONS IF BOTH VEHICLES STOPPED. THERE WOULD BE NO REARENDERS IF
BOTH VEHICLES STOPPED. A LITTLE BRIGHT LIGHT AT THE REAR END MIGHT DISUADE PEOPLE FROM TAILGATING.
ON MY LAST TOYOTA VAN (PREVIA) FRONT AND REAR LIGHTS CAME ON WITH IGNITION AT REDUCED BRIGHTNESS. I HARDLY EVER PUT THE LIGHTS ON FULL BORE. MY CURRENT TOYOTA SIENNA ONLY HAS FRONT DAYLIGHT LIGHTS, SO I LEAVE IT ON PARKING LIGHTS AND CAN TURN THE IGNITION ON AND OFF WITHOUT A STUPID WARNING TELLING ME TO TURN THEM OFF. I DON'T DRIVE IN THE DARK VERY OFTEN.
MY WIFE'S PATHFINDER HAS DAYTIME FRONT LIGHTS. SHE OFTEN DRIVES OFF IN THE MORNING IN HAZY OR FOGGY WEATHER WITH NO REAR LIGHTS SHOWING. IF SHE PUTS HER PARKING LIGHTS ON FOR REAR ILLUMINATION THEN SHE MUST TURN THEM OFF BEFORE SHE PARKS. THIS IS REALLY VERY STUPID CONSIDERING HOW FAR NORTH CANADA IS.
MAYBE THE REASON FOR ALL THIS IS THAT OUR POLITICIANS AND SENIOR BUREAUCRATS SPEND THEIR WINTERS DOWN SOUTH. THAT'S IS WHY OUR PREMIER WAS ARRESTED FOR DUI IN HAWII. I THINK HIS BLOOD ALCHOHOL CONTENT WAS .24.
IF ANYONE KNOWS WHERE THE JUICE IS CUT OFF FOR THE FOGLIGHTS LET ME KNOW, I WANT THEM TO GO ON WITH MY IGNITION.
