Your high beams are not necessary just because it's cloudy.

Ladies and gentleman: driving around at night with your high beams on in town can blind other road users. Driving around with them during the day just because it's getting cloudy doesn't do any harm, it simply makes you look stupid. Take this guy, who despite his literal best effort, is not the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree.

You can see him sitting there, annoying oncoming traffic, even from nearly a mile away. If you want to let people know that you, a person of questionable intelligence, are approaching from a distance, but you don't want to spend money on a noisy !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! / !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! / !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , simply flick on your brights. It does the trick.

Sorry for ranting about something so trivial, but it's all I got for today, and I have to rant about something, or I don't get paid.

I think these are the type of people that also ignore warning lights on their gauge cluster. Subsequently, they must also have horrible vision: "Man, its hard to see at night..." *flick stalk forward by accident* "Oh, that's better..."

By the same token, hazard lights are not for when its raining. It rains all the time, if you can't handle driving in it, stay home and spare everyone your idiocy.

....Depends how hard it's raining. I don't really the hazards if it's raining so hard your taillghts do nothing.

That's the dummy light. Because when it comes on you're already damaging your engine, dummy.

I had that light come one once, and instead of being smart and turning the car off immediately, I drove a mile to the nearest gas station to get oil. I put oil in which was good and the car was fine (took 2 quarts though) , but that was still a dumbass thing to do. I am smarter now.

a bit different because I'm in the UK but I use hazards for well, Hazards. Suddenly have to slow down as cops are enforcing a rolling roadblock, Hazards. Lane Blocked up ahead, Hazards. Stuck in snow (rare because UK, not so rare because MX-5), Hazards.

Hazards in rain indicate weakness that must be eradicated.
