Rear foglights driving thread

[Necuno]

Go post the same in the Bad Driving and Bad Parking threads and I will gladly reply to your post.

Pointless is pointless... Do you really think those drivers is going to read this thread? Naive much?

Picture of rear DRL or GTFO.

See below.

It seems you don't know what "rear" DRL are. What car do you drive?

Show me any car that has rear DRL... :wtf:

I do know what they are. A3 sedan, and most cars with automatic headlights have similar setups these days. Did make a small error with original post where it could have been read as me saying white DRL in back, this has been amended.

DRL: These are constantly on once the ignition is turned on, hence why I refer to them as rear DRL


Brakes:


Fog: Yes, bright enough to screw with the color reproduction. Supposed to be red, not purplish.


All:

Pictures please, use MsPaint to highlight whats what. Maybe format as below:

I would have done so, but sadly it would be kinda hard to mark in an easily understandable way due to how they are arranged.

It makes me feel better to vent. There are three options:

1. SANRAL and Metros and their goons take action

2. I go Porsche passenger on them

3. I post here and feel better

I choose option 3.

Still challenge you to go post the same in those threads.

If these idiots are so ignorant to their rear fogs being on, I doubt they will notice my brights either.

I've said what I've said. No need to "vent" it in other threads...

Error as mentioned. They did not upload successfully.

Anyway, I think I know what you mean (google is not much help) from what I have seen on the road, the led rear lights are your normal back lights, just on all the time, not a problem. Then brake lights are brighter and in between and then ridiculously bright fog lights.

Ouch yes, that's White Audi A4 - CY63FT GP right there! Fog lights are fog lights, there's no mistaking them.

 

[PhireSide]

Don't most modern cars have a light on the dash that tells you your fog lights are on?

Yes. Guys that have them on, want them on. Why? No cooking clue.

Definitely. Just wanted to point out the existence of rear DRL to the other forumites since I know they can be pretty harsh in some circumstances, which could lead to wrongly assigned blame.

But still not rear DLR, just always on rear lights .

On the other end of the spectrum I saw a Golfie tonight (7pm) driving with fark-all lights on...I flashed her with my brights to make her register that she had not turned her lights on AT ALL, and she waved at me like I was a long-lost relative :wtf:

PE people amaze me

 

[Naks]

This seems like a joburg thing. I didn't notice this phenomenon in CT or PE

Are you f-ing kidding me? You must not get out much then.

one of these days I will lose it and redecorate one of those ******s' cars with my landy's bullbar.
