Please turn on your headlights when it’s snowing as well. Yeah you, in the white car.

How about turn your fucking lights on in the fucking daytime, you dumbass rube.

Dear God, I could kill myself from alcohol poisoning from all the cars I see that don't turn their headlights on, whether it's in snowy weather or a clear day. They aren't in the hands of CMP, it's okay to turn them on.

In inclement weather, you’re supposed to have your headlights on.

Any kind of weather. Makes the vehicle more visible to other drivers

Personally I think they should have designed cars so that whenever the car is on the headlights are on and you can't turn them off with turning the car off. There's literally few to no reasons why you wouldn't want your headlights on.

I agree in most cases but there are definitely cases it's handy being able to turn them off. it's handy for me to be able to turn them off anyway.

Prime example, my house is located on a heavily travelled road and across the road from my house is another road that is dead end but quite long with a lot of houses on it. I back my truck in rather than pulling in so it would be quite annoying for all those folks to be blinded by my headlights shining through their windshield as my truck warms up, meanwhile they're just trying to find a break in traffic to pull out. Turning my lights off while the vehicle is on alleviates that issue.

Do you really not know why or you just trolling? When your lights are on you're easier to see.

White/gray car on a white/gray background?

Easier to see is easier to see. There's literally no downside to being easier to see.

There was an article in Reader's Digest at least 20 years ago. They studied the rate of traffic accidents for people who didn't have their headlights on during the day, vs. those who did. No headlights showed a huge leap in accidents, even in good weather. Most modern cars have a setting for daytime running lights, which can be turned off if necessary, such as the person who doesn't want to blind their neighbors while backing into their driveway. It's a safety thing.
