Clearly if your fog lights are pointing into oncoming eyes, your car is not low enough

On a serious note, how long do you think it will last before they miss the revenue.

It'll get to the point where no one in Perth is running brake lights... then they'll have a blitz

I thought fog lights were yellow, and that most of the lower lights on vehicles sold in Australia were termed "driving lights". Still illegal to use when your headlights are on (you're only allowed two lights on above 'x' wattage pointing forwards), but perfectly fine to use by themselves at say dawn or dusk.

Don't make it easier for the coppers to get you done!
It's a plus the commissioner is thinking like that but like all police they will target modified car's anyway that's the downside....it's still law so no matter what exhaust noise and easily seen mods I'm thinking will still be done by them
My thoughts only

I just assumed fog lights were used by wankers to show everyone how cool they are by having them 99.9% of the time in WA.

As Slap Dash said, if you run them during the day etc you deserve a fine purely on principle.
