5:15PM, December, dark AF out, SNOWING (8-12 inches on the way), I see what I thought was a beater with dim sealed beams heading the opposite direction hugging the shoulder as it was hard to see the lines with the 45mph 2-lane road covered in snow.
NOPE, just a moron in an orange Crosstrek with JUST ITS DRLS ON. After it passed me I saw ZERO tail lights lit up. And the car behind it wasn’t flashing or honking or anything.
DUMB. DUMB DUMB DUMB.

At least they chose a good color instead of black or something.

At least they were DRLs? Got into an argument the other day with a woman who drives with her parking lights because she thinks they’re DRLs.

When the cops start caring I’ll start caring. Let these people run themselves off the road and I hope NOBODY helps them.

Yet another reason I hate modern cars... make the gauges blacked out all cool like when the ignition is off, then they’ll light up like a Christmas tree when you start the car! Also, let’s add DRLs that turn on the headlights only! This won’t confuse the average mouth breather at all!

The varied color palette has always been one of my favorite things about the Crosstrek.

I still maintain that’s the reason that DRLs are stupid. Either full on automatic headlights mandatory, or get rid of them so people turn on their actual headlights manually because they can’t see.
Too many morons in Civics thinking those dipped high beams are freakin headlights.

DRL can make you so much more visible in many conditions, I wouldn’t want to live without them. They’ve prevented me from getting into trouble more than once.
But I agree entirely that the engineering is poorly thought out.
Maybe all cars should just have DRL + auto headlights with no manual control option.

A lot of GM cars in the mid ‘90s had this. The full head/tail/instrument lights were always on regardless of the switch position.

Alternative are assholes that have their high and fog beams on. Also bro with lightbars.
I feel like there is a veen diagram people with high beams, burnt out lights, fog lights, and a small amount who know what they’re doing.
