If you saw someone with their lights on you'd flash yours to let them know. Now half the cars have tbeir lights on even with the sun shinning brigbt. I know a few guys wbo HATE seeing cars with their lights on during the day. But yet some of those guys or gals drive witb tbeir *COOL' lights on...parking lights that is. I really dont give a coons rump but is it really safer to drive with your lights on when the sun is bright? Maybe for those who cant see good coming at ya!
On bright sunny bluebird days, I can't see that running or cool lights are of any use. The data is simply to limited. During the early morning and late afternoon as well as times of inclement weather, light do serve a useful purpose.
