Is it OK for rear fog lights to go off when the ignition is turned

Who cares? I never ever use mine. They look like brake lights. So when
you brake, the person behind doesn't know and slams into you. A very
dangerous invention. Tail lights are enough for the following car to see
you. If they aren't, they're driving too fast for the conditions and it's
their problem.

And yours when you have to do something
that you wouldn't have had to do if they
hadn't run into the back of your car.

The back of a car is 10 times stronger than the front. I've had a paint scratch vs. a broken radiator, two headlights, a bumper, and a bonnet. And she was only going 20mph more than me. Perfectly good weather, but she wasn't paying attention and didn't notice the queue of traffic ahead of her had slowed from 50mph to 30mph.
