Improper use of rear fog lights

[ParticleX]

Bakit ba andaming gumagamit ng RFL sa Manila where we don't experience even a slightest amount of fog? We were in Tagaytay yesterday, and it's been raining hard, pero visibility is still good and you one can still see a vehicle 7-10 cars away. About 6PM fog started to form in the streets (wherein you can't see a vehicle in front of you 4-5 cars away clearly) pero wala namang gumagamit ng fogs (only headlights). Pero pagbaba ko ng Manila juiceko onting ambon lang nagsi-sindihan ng mga rear fog lights! Nakaka distract sobra lalo na sa traffic na sa inis ko ino-overtake ko na lang ang said vehicles.

Ilang beses na rin ako nakapag-drive from La Union to Baguio via Naguillian and conditions there aren't dangerously enough that a rfl is needed. Pero city dwellers turn theirs on becuase "it looks c00l"

Reckless fog light drivers caused 300,000 accidents in 2011

- Two million near-misses caused by drivers leaving fog lights on in the same period
- Three million drivers admit to leaving fog lights on despite driving in good visibility, despite it being an official driving offence .
- One in five young drivers who had left fog lights on did so “because it looks good”

+1. Wala silang pinagkaiba sa mga naka HID na sabog ang headlights. I only turn on my RFL kapag poor visibility na due to heavy rain while some people turn on their hazards which we all know, is a no-no. Yun lang naman silbi ng RFL sa manila.

Speaking of heavy rain, kanina there was a heavy downpour at Roxas Blvd, RFL would be acceptable in those circumstances, pero andaming nagha-hazard lights sa daan, ni hindi pa nga ino-on ang mga headlights nila or even fender lights Pasimuno dito mga taxi at UV express hay



Counted 5 vehicles infront and beside me turning on their blinkers

I was on NLEX during a downpour yesterday afternoon (yep, i used my RFLs) and thankfully i did not see as much blinker users as before.

pwede kaya pa-print ng bumper sticker saying "why are your hazard lights on? are you stupid?"

[Stigg ma]

hopeless na ang pinas... kahit clear weather eh naka RFL pa din because it looks good!

pwede din ignorant, like my dad

kung mamalasin...
sometimes, the low beam is just as blinding as the hi beam, because the wet road surface is reflecting the low beam upward.. mas masama pa nga kaysa hi beams, kung minsan..

Nagpapaka-astig na pointless na nagmumukha lang tanga.

Kinda like Pinoy Pride.
