OK geniuses, I think we've all got that settled now...increasingly the norm with new cars is having daytime running lights.

What someone needs to do is to educate the dipshit traffic cops of this. Especially the dumb-asses standing across the street from the Acleda just before the Independence Monument roundabout.

They've stopped me twice about it. Once I tell them that they're welcome to re-wire my fucking car if they wish, they just let me continue on.

Daytime running lights have been the law in Canada for the past 30 years. Sweden has had the same law since 1977.

Did America change recently? I know DRLs are compulsory in Canada but I thought the U.S. didn't require them.

I remember some of my American friends asking if my car was broken because the lights wouldn't turn off.

My Grandfather complained it would drain the battery, I guess he didn t know that cars came with generators. Probably why he didn t play his radio loud too. haha
