Re: Day Time Running Lights - self-install summary

My big concern with DRLs is that many people who have them seem to forget that they need to turn on the rest of their lights at night. Here in Atlanta, I see people all the time with just their headlights on (DRLs) at night, but no marker lights or taillights. I know that their train of thought is that they can see the headlights working, so everything must be okay.

In my opinion, if a manufacturer is going to equip a car with DRLs, then they should do what some companies have done (like some of the GMC trucks, etc) and equip the car with a sensor that detects when it is dark outside and will automatically turn on the rest of the lights for you, so that you do not forget and create a hazardous situation for yourself and those around you.
