Finally got a chance to use my car's front foglights, but I didn't notice much of a difference....

^^^

Foglights are just to make your car more noticeable so that people can see you more easily in the low visibility conditions

OHHH!!!!!!! So they don't really improve the actual driver's vision???????????

LoLL!!! no wonder there wasn't much of a difference....

it does improve driver vision in thick fog when you use it instead of your headlights since there wont be a big cloud of white light directly in front of your view from the headlights.

In BC you're allowed to have your foglights on instead of your headlights when there's fog.

err... for my vehicle, the only way to turn on the fog lights is by first turning on the HIDs. -___-

People should speed up when there's fog. That way the people won't hit each other as easily. :dizzy:

+1 omfg dumbass people don't realize high beams REDUCE visability for both themselves and oncoming traffic.

How about turning on both? I don't get why people don't like to turn on their headlights at night.

because their cars turn on the speedo light, and they think that their headlights are on.

Watch out, some of the side streets can be icy/frosted since the fog brings the moisture closer to the ground. Driving home i noticed some slippage!

Yep, lots of condensation at higher elevations. Gonna be an ice rink tomorrow morning.
People in Vancouver can't drive regardless of what weather it is, so no surprise there.

I didnt realize how slippery it was. Almost slid into my garage door. Haha.

Now with the fog, I noticed a lot of people in vancouver have a head/taillight bulb out.
Pretty dangerous in the fog.

A lot of people have their high-beams on tonight when I drove in Richmond... about 4 out of 5 cars with their high-beams on responded to my high-beam flash and turned off their high-beams right away (very impressive, considering it's Richmond).

Below freezing + foggy/humid = black ice everywhere.
Below freezing + dry = about to snow.

I don't know which one's worse.

drivers just get worse when the weather does. They do not change their driving habits.

yesterday early morning, some crazed c-lai in a Caravan was bombing down my street while I was scraping ice. She noticed the end of the block coming sooner than expected and panicked, jammed on the brakes while turning the wheel when it locked up.

.... boy she looked stupid when she slid onto the curb, off the curb and sideways onto Boundary road. Luckily for everyone there wasn't any traffic at all. She continued on her way after as if it never happened.

:lol

She must have traded in her A4 for something a little safer.

Supposedly the 3000k and 6000k foglights provide the same amount of visible road in the fog, oposing the general convention that 3000k did a better job in the fog.

I agree! Where bouts in northy bby?

Driving back from Surrey last night, holy crap was it icy and foggy. High beams don't do shit, people need to realize this and how it screws other drivers over.
