In Illinois it is the law to turn your headlights on when it is raining. I, of course, do this all the time, because I am law abiding. But, for some reason, there are morons out there that don't. Either they're too stupid and don't know how to turn them on, don't think it is necessary or think that just because their daytime running lights are on means their taillights are on as well. Just a pet peeve, so now for my very scientific poll.

I always turn my headlights on when it rains... sheesh I sometimes catch myself turning them on in the middle of the day no matter what the conditions are. :loser1: okay so I am a loser.. I admit... it probably comes from the majority of my driving being done between 4:30 and 5AM... ar late in the evening anywhere from 10 to midnight...

That's an interesting law, never heard of that one before. I can see why though. Generally I always turn them on in the rain, but not the fogs lights though.

I'm kind of like MissCourtney (no, not a woman, I crack myself up) I find myself turning them on when not needed. I think it is a great law if it were enforced.

It is the law here in California if you need to use your windshield wipers then you must turn on your headlights.

I was hoping for a 50/50 choice. The two times it rains here in the valley of the sun I might forget to turn them on once.

rbnsal, I was actually thinking about you guys in AZ, but I couldn't come up with anything clever.

The answer to that is "Rain... Whats that?!?!

I suppose my best choice would have been #4. I've had my Nitro for a year and a half and haven't had to change the blades yet. We change blades more often for dry rot than wear.

It's a law now in most states.

 

[APOLLO]

Never, in fact sometimes I get to work(30Miles away) at midnight and realize i never turned my lights on, guess with my all black nitro, full limo tint, blacked out lights and black rims, the other drivers never even see me, oh well.

it is the law here in NY so the answer to that questions is YES

I always use my headlights ... raining or not.

As my Nitro does not have Daytime lights, they all come on, and indicate that this car is (or is about to be) in motion ... which can be particularly useful in parking lots. I would hope that people would be less likely to walk behind a vehicle (where they couldn't see the driver) if they suspected the vehicle could move at any moment.

Rain? in Seattle?????

The answer to that is "Rain... Whats that?!?!

Oh, leave me alone!!!!! :Na_Na_Na_Na:

I can just picture you driving down to road - wipers set to intermittent and just before they wipe turn your lights on the back off again!!

LOL!!!!!

THAT would be funneeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

"Oh great ... according to the manual, the intermittent wipers come with intermittent headlights"

Repeat the Micro$oft Mantra after me: "It's not a bug, it's a feature!"

 

[IMWhisper]

After reading that to DH he says - you should see me when the 'don't walk' light is flashing!!!
