This morning in the UK we have a thick blanket of Fog - meaning the visibility on the road is around 50 yds at most.
The majority of cars on the road have their headlights on, and fog lights - as you would expect but there are a good handful who have not. No headlights on at all! The cars that these idiots belong to are the sort of cars who will have Auto headlights (they come on when its dark and go off when its light.) So obviously the fact that these drivers no longer have to think about switching on / off the headlights when its dark, has made them stupid. They have failed to think that perhaps they should put on their headlights and fog lights when its a very foggy day. These are the kind of people who will walk into a lamppost because they were staring at a woman's boobies, and sue the council because the lamppost was there, and not made out of soft duck feather filled pillows!
I saw a near miss this morning because of this. A car coming the other direction turned in front of a car, because it couldn't see it - it had no lights on at all! Perhaps the Auto Headlights switch should come with a sticker saying "sometimes you might have to turn them on manually when its not dark, but you cant see jack all. Fools."

Fog + Auto headlights + Idiots = Disaster

Dip your headlights- damn you!
On a recent night time trip from Plymouth along some fairly windy roads - it became evident that the drivers coming the other way were dumb. Not all of them,but a good proportion of them.
I got blinded around 20 times from drivers coming the other way with full beam, not bothering to dip their headlights. How thick do people have to be to not do that? it really does make you have to question the human race. Do these people get home, and sit in their Kia's waiting for someone to open the door for them? They could be stuck in there for weeks!
This is a serious issue - this could very well cause accidents. So people, use your head and know how to work your headlights, or stay at home!
