‘Automatic headlights’ don’t work in fog?

[u/clynchy97]

About 40-50% of the cars we passed on the road today had no headlights on or only had the dim side lights. Do automatic lights not work in fog for these modern cars? Seems super sketchy

I never understood why turning headlights off is even an option. They should be on all the time if the vehicle is in gear. And they should shut off in park.

If we're going to let idiots drive, we should make it as idiot proof as possible.

Oldschool subarus are this way. It’s pretty nice tbh

Yup. I had a ‘91 Toyota previa that was the same. Just left the headlight switched on 100% of the time and the lights turned off with ignition off. I’ve had a few subarus, too. Love that feature!
