Auto Lights Upgrade - 99p Start!

[Toms306]

Think of the mpg you're wasting running lights all the time! . Reducing bulb life too tbh.

I suppose you could use sidelights all the time...they have literally no purpose imo!  If you need lights on, put lights on, not some half arsed tiny bulb lol.

a) *Reducing lamp life. They are lamps. Not bulbs.
b) Sidelights should not be used when driving. It should be no lights (at a bare minimum) in perfect conditions and dipped beam in anything other than perfect basically. Sidelights are for when you are parked at the side of a road hence why on modern cars, they are the only light to be able to be left on with the keys out.

I'm afraid you're wrong there....  Parking lights are for parking.  Sidelights are actually for driving but only for an hour each day apparently (makes you wonder what the point is!).


Lights

• You must use sidelights between sunset and sunrise.
  
• You must use headlights at night (between half an hour after sunset and half an hour before sunrise) except on a road with lit streetlights.
  
• You should use dipped headlights at night in built-up areas unless the road is well lit, and use headlights at night on lit motorways and roads with a speed limit in excess of 30 mph.
