Fog on or Fog off
Why oh why why oh why do people insist on driving in citroens renaults corsa/nova etc with sidelights plus fogs on clear nights ???????
I think it's cos they hope you think for a nanosecond they might be in a scooby !

You mean the lighter ones that cost less and are cheaper to modify to bigger bhp than their over-rated bigger brother? Oh why oh why did I have to go there 
Anyway. Dipped lights on for the safety of being seen more easily, fog lights off so you don't look either a) forgetful, b) careless or c) a plonker.

Nothing to do with the cars you mentioned. More to do with the ***** driving them. Usually with a fixed, serious look, 1 hand on top of the wheel and nearly lying horizontally as the seat back is so low. Have seen them in Scoobs, Audi, BMW, Citreon etc etc

Fog light Fannies as I like to call them - really p1sses me off!!
As do people who put full beam on when it's not fully dark & don't dip when coming towards you - Full Beam Fannies this time.
Then there are the 40 mph Fannies - regardless of whether they are on the open road or in a 30mph limit they drive at one constant speed of 40mph!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't know why your all getting your knickers in a twist girls about fog lights because these big headed road hogs that drive cars with HID OR xenon type lights are much worse. When they approach from the rear it's like close encounters, or some other kind of allien invasion but it turns out to be Bertie Big Head in his Merc or Bm. Or maybe some of you on here with STI's or HID conversions, are you frightened of the dark? at least you can turn fogs off.

Don't these people know the 3 rules about driving? Especially #2...
When approaching others...
1)Never get them wet,
2)Keep them away from bright lights
3)and never feed them after midnight...
Otherwise you'll all turn in to this...
