Default Who drives with just fog lights on?

I love the look of a C4 with just the fog lights on with the headlights still hidden. The first time I saw a C4 like that(many years ago) I was sold. I think it just looks pretty sinister. I usually do that on the way to work at dawn, or at dusk. How many of ya'll drive like that?

I love it as well... I do it all the time! Here is a pic from the L.A. Toy run that NavyC5 took of me riding down the road:

I do it when the sun is coming up or going down, but never during normal sunny weather.

baddmann,

I do it unless I need to see. I run all day long with them on, too. I think it's safer.

By the way, that copper is real hot looking!

I have always run with my driving lights on, be it my Vettes, company truck, or my 67 Camaro SS that I sold. :cheers:

I wait until the absolute last minute to pop up the headlights, but sometimes I'll drive around all night with just foglights. Any car I have with foglights I'll do the same thing. It's cool. :seeya

It depends. In slightly foggy weather, drizzle weather I'll turn on just the fog lights. I'll do it in an effort to be seen because I know the headlights aren't doing anything for light.

Now if it's really raining hard I'll go ahead and turn the headlights on, it is the law you know, not that anybody does it.

I have a question, maybe you've noticed it too. On a foggy morning why is it that the kissing grey cars NEVER have ANY of thier lights on. Meanwhile the bright yellow and red cars that you can see a mile away always do? I guess I have too much faith in humanity to accept that people are really that damn stupid. I know my car disappears at night and such so I always drive with some lights on and I have a really loud exhaust and I ALWAYS use my turn signals.

I do it as much as I can. Here in Germany we are not allowed to drive with just our fog lights. But i still do it sometimes. :D

I used to at night 100% of the time. Then I got pulled over :rolleyes: cop asked my why I didn't have my headlights on, and I told him it looks better with just the Fog lights. He proceeded to lecture me and gave my car a full safty inspection, warned me and let me go. I was like... :sleep:

For the past two months I've HAD to drive around with just my fog's/parking lights on, because my headlights WON'T pop-up, and my hood won't open, so I can't MANUALLY pop them. Looks damn cool..I have upgraded my lights though. My fogs are 50w, while my parking are 35w (and they're clear bulbs, instead of amber) My fog/parking combo is brighter than the BRIGHTS on my saturn! :crazy:

There are some nights that I dont turn on my headlights just drive with the fog lights on. Depends on how far I am going and if its really lighted in the city or not and if there is a full moon. The look is really cool though
