Do they not realise it is an offence.

I'm fed up with foot path cyclists!

I use a bike on the odd occasion it has lights, and a bell (required within the highway code) I use the road, THAT is where I should cycle.
The number of I don't care about you people legally using a foot path I'm only interested in my own safety, push their way past with a swear word because you didn't hear them coming, they are to me as bad as a motorist drink driving or using a mobile phone and should be clamped down on with the full force of our limpid laws.

My foglights on my daughters car though come on by themselves, turn left when you have dipped headlights on and the left foglight comes on, turn right and the right foglight comes on.

That I think, is a standard thing with most modern vehicles. I know it happens with our 2013 Ford Tranny Custom, a bit distracting initially but then you just take it for granted as time goes by. :)

So if I get pulled I just need to convince officer dibble that it's a feature of my car and not that I've switched them on by accident.

How posh!

You have a van less than 5 years old!

Should you really be talking to us minions?

On second thoughts...

Oh, dear, your a scoucer, who's van is it really?

It was other drivers being distracted by them not the driver of the car with the flashing fog lights

Re: Yours disruntedly

If the fog light switch is off how can it come on whether the vehicle is turning or not.

That's how they've designed it, supposed to help by lighting the corner you're turning into.

Must admit it fooled me too.

The thought of a van being "Posh" takes some getting used to.

Most definitely, need to keep the peons happy! :D

Less, Less, Less, whatever are you suggesting? Just because we've got a newish van doesn't make me any less of an 'orrible little oik as I've always been. :D

Added to that it's important to have a "Big boot" for moving kit about! (Mind you, the exact ownership of said kit is somewhat secondary ..... :D)
