Another bit of British legal nonsense.
It is legal to drive in poor daytime visibility with no lights at
all. It is illegal to drive in the same conditions with just side
lights. But it is legal to drive at night just on side lights.
However it is noticeable that on motorways at least, the vast
majority of drivers use headlights at the slightest sign of poor
visibility.
Unfortunately far too many people insist on using high-intensity rear
lights at night as a matter of course, even though it is
supposedly illegal to use them unless visibiliy is less than 100
meters. They are absolutely lethal when used in traffic when it is
raining.
