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

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.
Which bit of "fog" do you not understand?


I understand it perfectly. It reduces the distance you can see,
therefore the people behind me should allow more space and travel more
slowly. What if an unlit deer, pedestrian, dog, etc walks in front of
them? If they require lights to see what's in front of them, they
shouldn't be driving.

Which bit of "reflection" do you not understand?


What's reflection to do with it? An unlit car will reflect as well as an unlit dog or pedestrian. If you can't see one you can't see the other. Don't expect everyone else to display themselves to you with flashing lights.
