Does the use of front foglights, where conditions do not merit their use*, dazzle other road users?

* Conditions to include rain, snow, wildebeest presence, dry, night and daytime but where visibility is greater than 200m.

There's always some berk with them on on the twisty wee country roads round here :mad:
Bad enough when it's pitch black, but a right pain in the @rse when it's wet too!

The wildebeest don't help matters! ;):D

I saw just saw a shape running across the field, it was that sort of half light so it was like catch glimpse of a shadow. I just started to back off, as it ran across my path. If I'd hadn't of backed of I would have hit it.

Perhaps I should have had my fogs on, it might have blinded him so he didn't run out. :D :D :D :D :D :D

That would be another reason to turn your fogs off.
