- Turn 'em off. These damn fog lights are nothing but a glaring pain in the ass
- to other drivers on the road (Amber or otherwise) especially since people who
- have them seem to drive with 'em on weather or not there's fog. If there IS
- fog, then please, use the lights (as they were meant). Otherwise get used to
- other drivers flashing their brights at you. Sorry, but I really hate these
- lights (as much as those blinding strobe lights that some cars use as turn
- signals).
