Default fog lights

I'm constantly getting flashed when i run my low beams and fogs...it seems that when people see all 4 lights lit up they assume you are running your high beams....when the fog lights are off nobody flashes me...anyone else having this problem?

No, never acctually and I use the fog lights as soon as the sun sets, since I think the regular lights aren't good enough.
Maybe yours are pointing to high?

I've had the car driven toward me and the lights are not blinding at all...I think its just where the fogs are located

I've had it happen at least twice. I think the same thing. People think you have your brights on so I show them what they really look like. I have noticed that when driving with the lows on they seem to have a wall ten or fifteen feet in front of the car that they wont shine above. It's really bad when you hit a low spot in the road and try to drive out of the low spot. Anyone else noticed this problem?

I've only had my car for 5 days now and have been flashed once with my fogs on. I think it's cause they see the extra set of lights and think it is a high beam. My fogs just fill in the area behind and to the sides of my headlights. They really work well on dark twisty roads to be able to see the shoulder.
