It seems everytime i go out these days 1 in 5 drivers now thinks its fashion to have their fog lights permanently on! Some even in daylight and some who don't bother to put their normal lights on but instead opt for the ones that make them faster!
Perfect time to start a good old political group tbh
What pisses me off the most is i know if i was to do it (which i wouldn't in the first place), i'd probably be pulled over within an hour and fined!

An e-gang will definately stop them :p
People who do this are muppets but the old bill will pull them over soon enough and they'll get fined :)

seriously mate i don't know what its like in other places but around here (bolton / manchester) every other car i see seems to have their freakin fog lights on at every opportunity!
hopefully the group will catch the attention of some of the helmets that actually do it!

it is about 1 in 5 drivers in fact I'll count tomorrow.... but mind you I should be keeping my eyes on the road, but it is awfully hard with the glare of those cursed fog lights!!! :fcuk:
it tends to be the people who wouldn't notice if they were driving with the handbrake on tbh.:err:

In the last month or so, I've taken it upon myself to flash every car with fogs on, cos it really pisses me off so much. No need at all, unless its really foggy.

3rd February 2008, 22:53
why do you do it then?
only when the weather's pretty bad...not in blazing sunshine or anything..but still...you should only have them on when its really foggy. i'll use them on dark, unlit roads too....only if its quiet and i'll switch them off if there is anything oncoming. oh and photo snaps too...i'll stick em on...cos it just looks good :homme:
so not that naughty overall...:hug:

is it just me, or do fog lights not make much of a difference in the fog anyway???

3rd February 2008, 23:11
I have been pulled over for having them on. He says do you know you got your foglights on i say no he says switch em off.The End
It taught me not to put them on though.

they are lower down, so cut through the fog more
and theyre not to help you see. im pretty sure its so other drivers can see you

3rd February 2008, 23:18
i always see taxi drivers with them on, and boy racers with them on, usually one bulb is out though lmao so they have one fog light :p proper gay :n:
alextoffie
3rd February 2008, 23:19
boy racers definitely
I can guarantee you if you see a shit old 1.2 car with stupidly big alloys and lexarse lights on around here the fogs will be on full show

I didn't start the group with the intention of stopping idiots.
They will always exist.
Its just to spread the word a bit and let those people know who view it + have their fogs on that they aren't cool ;)

tbh 70% of the cars i see with it on are NOT young lads 17-21 they are older people in fkn family cars , it winds me up especially on the motorways. id fkn love to just slap one of the idiots who feel the need to have fog lights on at 2pm absolute NOOBS! and as said its the older generation around here

Hopefully mine are coming out when it gets a bit warmer..
I've not needed them as of yet but.. just to make sure.. i'll leave it until it gets a little warmer.

Ha, fighting for a good cause!
The other day, when it was foggy down here, i drove with the front fogs on..
..So i keep cruising, as the fog clears.
It was clear by the time i headed off home, and i get flashed about 4 times for my foglights. At 1 in the morning!
How do these people put up with it! i see people being flashed to remind them their foglights are on by other drivers all the time. surely it's less hassle to just turn them off! Quite obviously other road users dont find them cool...

I have joined.
I absolutely hate them, i flash them with my full beam can't stand them one bit. i do not understand the point what so ever, they are the gayest people ever.
Can guarentee that it will be a bmw with its fogs on round my way.
I have been thinking it would be good if you could make your front fogs say "GAY" so you could turn them on when you see them coming towards you.

Tbh on most newer cars the dipped beams are brighter than the foglights now.
Not exactly hard to ignore people who drive with them on

I do this quite often when driving at night through small country lanes!
I really cant afford to hit potholes, and it has saved me a few times. I find it lights up that blind spot right infront of the car

is it just me or are some people on the motorway with full beam on, or either new cars have STUPIDLY bright lights, on a 130mile trip i flashed 2 people and nearly flashed 2 others, 1 was an older car that must have been full beam (this is at 7ishpm busy time) and another few i seen miles behind me so bright i had to put my rear view mirror off, surely all them people didnt have full beam on? anyone else noticed this?
