Dear Sir, Blinded by Foglights in Good Weather Epedemic!

Dear Sir,

Getting blinded on fine clear nights

by too many foglights, now about 1 in every 10 of small hatchbacks

OK,OK, I realise that certain boy racers may feel inadequate to the extent that a couple of tiny viagara foglights can boost their rally libido but is it really necessary? Or do I need to bolt a hugh strap on (bank of football pitch halogens on me bumper) to flash an frighten the bu***rs off the road by giving them a dose of there own medicine? or maybe I'm just an old fart?

And there are two types who really p**s me off

type 1....Oh dear theres a whisp of mist better put fog lamps of because I am such a sensible driver that I do not read the highway code to know the recommended distance.

type 2.....I am a sensible driver I use my fog lamps but I do not use my rear veiw mirror so I do no see the car behind me that has been flashing his healights and fog lights for two minutes because I am so rude as to dazzle him with my fog

Nah Robbie it aint your age.......

I HATE IT TOO!!!!

Altho i have noticed something that i am sure is gonna get me a slap by the ladies on the forum. Most of the time its WOMEN who dont know that their fogs are on

they just think their headlights are on!!! Apart from boy racers thats the majority.

Just the other day i was behind a punto with rear fog light on *oowwwwww my eyes* so when i pulled up next to her at the lights i said u've got your fog lights on she replied with how do i turn them off :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: I was like its your car.....

So yeah u women.........learn how to use ya car!!!!

Erm (who now legs it away)

Never mind about fog lights. What about the menace that is BMW drivers tailgating you with XENON headlamps :x .

Robbie offers christmas tree lights for all those foglight lovers out there, just wrap em round your CC in clear weather, just as naff but won't blind other drivers
