I am now seeing more motorists using their vehicles’ fog lights while driving at night. There appears to be no restrictions or enforcement of this potentially dangerous practice.
Especially for older folks, it can be blinding to drive past oncoming vehicles with their fog lights on, especially during rainy nights or past trucks with fog lights high off the ground. Maybe the Star-Advertiser can publish a poll, asking people if they drive with their fog lights on at night.
For Oahu, there is rarely any fog to justify using one’s fog lights on public roads with oncoming traffic. I can see using fog lights on secluded, narrow and dark roadways, but nowhere else. I wish the Honolulu Police Department could have a law for Oahu prohibiting what is now a more common practice.
