Are they the ones driving around with their fog lights on when there is
no fog?

I drive around 40 to 50 thousand miles a year and have done so for the
last 20 years.


How many times do you think in that time I have needed to use my fog
lights to meet the required 100m visibility guide line?

Very rarely. But no different from those who put headlights on as soon as
they see a cloud.

Auto headlights are crazy, they turn on when you drive through a slightly shaded area of trees, then off again after 5 seconds.

But the worst thing is the always on EU daytime running lights fiasco. First thing I do is to disconnect them. You don't needs lights to see something when the sun is out!
