Front fogs

A bit off topic, but a test of a 1960"s sports car said:
“driving over cat`s eyes felt more like an encounter with the whole cat”

Nope…

I don’t get it. :smiley:

I agree that in normal circumstances, the low level high beams are enough, but as soon as you get of the main roads, the hedges are often overgrown, with sometimes rather substantial branches sticking out, usually at mirror height.
In the UK, hedge control seems to have been largely abandoned, even on lesser main A roads, with some roads now requiring you to move over the centre line, to avoid losing your mirrors, or worse.

Fair comment.

Something I tend to do when it’s foggy and the rear fogs are on and I’m overtaking is switch them off when I pull back in….he doesn’t need to be blinded and I’ll switch them back on when his headlamps are almost invisible in the mirrors

Between cyclists using unlit roads without lights and suicidal pedestrians and potholes deep enough to smash wheels and suspension the idea of the more lights the better is understandable.
Fog lights definitely help to light up the latter.

Oh dear CF I bet you use your rear fogs in the rain

Nope.Ive found they just don’t light up the foot deep potholes randomly scattered around Surrey before hitting them going at 40 mph + backwards in reverse.

No wonder you failed to secure a role in the industry.

Against the law

But the chances of anyone being prosecuted for it are slim to none I’d say.

When Polish drivers made their way into the EU zone, front fog lights on carried an identity symbolism for them, that regardless of visibility conditions

Cat’s eyes, for road use, were invented by a Yorkshire man, Percy Shaw almost ninety years ago.
The idea came to him as a cat walked toward him in the dark.
Presumably, had the cat been walking away from him, he would have invented a pencil sharpener. :laughing:

you’ve been watching Doddy SDU and i don’t blame you, very funny bloke or sadly was

Top grade humour really is wasted on you.

There was nothing top about it. Apparently any humour is wasted on you. :smiley:

Look on the ‘bright’ side at least he’ll see the pothole.Just before it tears off the front bumper and …fog lights.
