Taking the driver's license of anybody under the age of 50 who stops
in the middle of the highway in a snow storm to clean off their
windshields and wiper blades.

Seriously.

And people who drive with their fog lights on 24/7 in areas of fifty
miles visibility. Isn't four headlights considered driving with the
high beams on? Some are okay. Some are obnoxious. And all unnecessary
unless there is actually some fog.

The big difference there is that (properly aimed) high beams are aimed
higher, and fogs are aimed lower than your regular headlights. Fogs don't
bother me, high beams do. The key here is properly aimed. Many folks add
after market fogs, and have no clue how to aim them. As a result, they
look like high beams.

I drive 400 miles of Interstate once or twice a month. In some places,
the lanes are close together. I can see a HUGE difference in lights
oncoming. As I say, some four lights are no different than two regular low
beams. Then there are those blue obnoxious beams that are blinding even on
low. Then there are the four lights that look like they're aircraft
landing lights. And some as cross-eyed as that girl that sat across from
me in Study Hall that I couldn't tell where the hell she was looking.
Needs to be some regulations on those. In Utah, my home, there is a law
on window tint, and there's a device they use to measure that. Seems like
it would be easy to come up with one for headlights. I have some on my
2006 Dodge Ram 2500, and I never turn them on because I don't like the way
they illuminate. IIRC, there's a commercial for SAAB ? where the houses
have Christmas lights down the block, and they roll their two vehicles
out, each with eight little lights or so on each side. How much light is
enough?

I guess enough to light up that Honda ahead of you stopped in the middle
lane changing wipers.

LOL! Like I said... properly aimed fog lights should not bother you at all.

BTW, I like your taste in trucks. 2003 Ram 2500 here...5.7 Hemi, 4wd, crew
cab, full size bed, and... fog lights (factory) g. Been a Ram owner since
1984.
