It's only really used by the DVLA when you're trying to buy your road fund licence online, and by the police.
I agree about askmid, it`s there to check your own car, but if i`d been in an accident, especially if it looked like just a scam, i`d be having a look on there to see.

I don`t think you can blame the driver aids really. Could just as easily been the driver switching on the lights. Never had auto wipers or lights myself, but the reverse sensors on the van are very handy.
