Those that choose to use Rear Fogs when it is misty are a real pain, those that use them when it's rain I its bordering on hatred.

Saw this today, sort of fitting really.

I use them in the fog day or night and I also use them in the rain when conditions get so bad that you can barely see the car in front due to fine spray (daytime). Tend not to do so during rain/spray at night due to dazzling.

I very rarely encounter conditions where visibility is bad enough to need Rear Fogs, the 70k a year means I miss these conditions  p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

I remember a couple of winters ago back in the FL2, I was taking my brother-in-law home via country lanes as A38 was blocked. We encountered fog so thick you could hang your coat on it. Never seen anything that bad before or since.

The headlights were upgraded to brighter bulbs, front fogs were on, rear fogs were on but I had to just crawl along because the road was not visible. Even tried (briefly) switching headlights to sidelights and relying on front fogs for less glare but to no avail. We both had the windows down and had to lean out to see anything. I could just make out the white line and he could see the kerb. Thankfully it lifted a little so I could at least pick up speed but was still grim. LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

If my memory serves me right, should only be used when visibility is less than 100 metres.

I'd rather have someone in front with rear fogs on the borderline of necessity than the oaf screaming up behind with no lights at all or parking lights the size of fag ends.

Years ago I once drove through thick fog in Huddersfield. I had to follow the kerb line as I couldn't see anything else. I found it really disorientating, when I eventually drove out of the fog I thought I was going to throw up! Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.
