Re: My wife's car has automatic headlights.

"If anything, they probably come on quite often when not necessary."

Yes, they do. Bloody annoying for those of us who know how and when to use the cars lights properly. Especially the dazzling HID ones. Few people, especially those who leave the lights permanently on "auto" seem to know when to use side lights. Auto lights don't seem to use the side light setting at all.

And while I'm having a rant, front fog lights are NOT a replacement for one or more failed headlights, especially in town. If the street lights are on and you don't exceed 30mph, sidelights are all you legally need to use.
