Because DRLs at least provide visibility from the direction of highest closing speed. No lights provide no visibility at all.
Yes.
Then post a reference to the formal studies. Common sense and personal observation show me that the bozos dont use their lights properly, DRLs or no DRLs and the intelligent people use their lights properly in either case.
I am most concerned about baneities. And with seeing idiots like the truck on CA152 Scott mentioned in that other posting in time to make an evasive maneuver or at least scrub off enough speed to survive.
You have an easier time, not a harder time, because at least from one direction visibility is improved. From the other direction the light in front of the car still very likely will be visible. So visibility overall increases over no lights at all.
When arguments dry up you start insulting. Nothing new.
Not running your lights makes you indeed harder to see, which is why it is still better to have DRLs than no lights at all.

I like auto headlights because they make a lot of people drive around with lights where they otherwise wouldn't. The system works so well that the benefits have filtered through even to the NHTSA.
this is where N8N lost it
Nate, I know you can't control your anger very well, so I will leave you to yourself until you have regained your composure.
