Fog light Ban?

[Darkness]

ya coolness at the expense of other road user is

 

that is why education and not punishment alone is the way to solve the problem.

I agree. HID install wrongly or on the wrong car is so much worst than foglights. Firstly, foglights are situated nearer to the floor than headlights. Its suppose to shine the area around the front of the car. Only those foglights which are wrongly installed or its change to super white lights, then its bad.

 

HID installed on SUV and some old cars, are the worst. Shine until I can see them coming from far away. Their headlights does not shine on the floor in front of the car, its shine straight at the car in front, in order to blind them.

As long as the front foggies are installed properly, I am ok as they dun really blind road users. But no aftermarket front foggies please !!

 

And those who use rear foggies on a clear day deserved to get their rear lights smashed !!

 

Yes!

 

Hahaha! Actually I said tougue in cheek only. Of course proper fog lights installed properly and used when required - whether it's fog or heavy rain and other low visibility conditions - contributes to safety of both the driver and other road users....

 

I just cannot stand idiots who turn on their foggies when in S'pore all the roads are brightly lit. Don't know shine for what

eh...where is the education in the 1st place ??

once they are behind the wheel...

they are the king le

all the yrs of educations are down the drain le

[Chemz]

Saw an idiot on a fortunar with the fogs on in the bloody car park. I mean why the hell in a fully lit up place

 

Education needed. Shouls send them to Europe (eastern) so that they can see the very reason why fog lights were invented for

 

i think in the carpark, it's pretty dimly litted and dark, thus maybe the need to turn on some kind of lights, foglights in this instance help to illuminate the ground, esp kerbs or what not.

 

in an mscp, it's pretty squeezy for suvs, so i don't see why not. anyway i'd prefer drivers to turn on their lights in a mscp.

so what is exactly fog lamp for in local context?

I tried a couple cars with stock foglamp and found most will just illuminate the ground and for short projected distance (<5m), hardly a glaring experience as compared to those aftermarket HIDs or cabs with adjusted left head beam. I think the authority needs to clarify more on this "hazy" issue and how they indent to enforce.

 

Not all foglamps are created equal.

2. Blue white lights that look bright, but don't really cast a proper beam. I know it's cool to have white lights, now HID is cheaper, can you go install a proper HID system ? at least the beam is more focused and it doesnt shine into people's cabin. Not everyone can afford it I know, but at least buy some lights that WON'T IRRITATE PPL ARD U.

 

 

Are you sure that HID beam is more focussed and less irritating? So far my own personal observations have been that HIDs are definitely more blinding and irritating than just some bluish or white lights.
