Pretty much everything will damage at speeds, thus why there so much emphasis on getting people to slow down, less likely to crash, and if it does happen theres a less risk of a fatality.

Good point.

How are they possibly annoying? They point at the ground all of 2metres in front of the car. Ive never once been inconvenienced by an oncoming car with foggies on.

I think as a mark of respect to the guy who lost his life (for whatever reason...bad luck, or too going fast in the wet...) this thread should be closed as it's getting off topic.

Actually, the rules say they can be used in 'conditions which inhibit visability'.

Its not 3 points, its 1.

If someone finds these lights annoying, get over it, they arent bright, if they are, then they are probably spotties.

and yes its off topic.
