Therefore, please don't switch on your Fog Light (Especially during these few weeks).

Re: Don't Switch ON your Fog Light - Beware

it's becoz lately all those Merc e class taxis has been running with fog lights on already mah!
 
Re: Don't Switch ON your Fog Light - Beware

I don't understand it. I normally don't drive with my fogs anyway but I feel that there's really no point in having this rule.

It'll die out after a while trust me. Just look at the rear passenger seat belt ruling.
 
Re: Don't Switch ON your Fog Light - Beware

Whether it will die out after a while, I don't know. But I do know one things is that it gives them another EXCUSE to pull you over, then the harassment starts - road tax expiry, tinted windows, breath analyzer, loud exhaust/engine mods, passanger seat belt not buckled, child not on child seat/booster seat, no spare tire in truck, etc. etc. etc. SO DON'T FALL INTO THE TRAP. DON'T GIVE THEM EXCUSE TO PULL YOU OVER.... not worth the RISK.

Now if one were to drive with the headlights on in the day, is that illegal as well?

Actually, I think that is surprisingly widely encouraged by the wise people of TP, if I'm not mistaken.
 
Re: Don't Switch ON your Fog Light - Beware

Actually, daytime running lights are the norm in Canada and illegal not to have them. The arguement there is that with daytime running lights pedestrians can spot a car further away and faster, hence its safer.

Hi ! Rodder.

I agreed with you that this will die out after a while but don't be a victim during this sensitive period of time :)

Bonus season coming soon? They gotta start planning to raise moolah otherwise no bonus = unhappy staff :lol2:
 
Re: Don't Switch ON your Fog Light - Beware

Front fogs or rear fogs??

I agree they should pull over those inconsiderate people driving with rear fogs on... but front fog seem pretty ok to me...

They should pull over those black black hyundai getzs or civics with tiny blue or red lights..sometimes you cant see them at all!

Yes, the government states tat. but bare in mind their daytime running lights as stated are the dim headlights, not the foglights.

Penalty is fine and/or jail!!

Fine or de-merit points I can still understand and maybe accept, but JAIL? So LTA/TP is saying those who turn on fog lights are same as those robbers and drug traffickers? What logic is that!?
