I agree completely! It is legal. Just mentioning that the cop used it as an excuse. Cop said d4rb was blinding people with his fogs.[&:]
There are those times when I preffer to fly low and not draw attention. Hence not running with fogs is the order of the day....err night!
Just thought it worthy of mention is all.

Using your fogs as DRL's is a good idea, IMO. I think though, at night and NOT foggy or raining or snowing, that the fogs with the headlights is a distraction. Not illegal, but a distraction. Must be my A.D.D.

The problem with fogs is that they shed light in almost every direction.
The headlights are directed downwards towards the road, that's why the fogs are annoying at night.

If you're blinding someone with your fog lights, then they're NOT fog lights. They'redriving lights. Fog lights (if meant as fogs) don't havea pattern that out-throw the headlights.
Personally, and this is simply MY opinion. people that drive with their fog lights on when it's not dark and raining or snowing or foggy out are annoying. But that's just my opinion. Flame away...

I'm not blinding them. The light pattern shines only 30 feet down the road. Unless they are laying on their side in the road and looking at me from 30 feet or less, it isn't shining in their eyes. I really don't care if my fogs are annoying to others or not. They need to get over it. The fogs help me identify some of the 250+ resident deer that live inside the city limits of our town and who frequently become suicide jockeys are dart out in front of me and others. They just blast me cause they count 4 lights, NOT because they are blinding them.

No they don't. Turn yours on and off at night and you will see they're limitations. 30 feet at most and down too.
