Sometimes when I remember to turn them on. Years ago they had this advertisement on tv to get everyone to drive with their headlights on. The reasoning behind it was less chance of being in a car accident. People would be so worried about your head lights on that they would slow down and not hit you. I think the affect of them being on has faded with so many people doing it. After you drive for awhile you wont notice if people have them on or off till it is dark.

Yea i think that they would cause people to be more aware there is a car there and less likley to be in an accident, i seen more cause with the headlights on but i did see thoes few who did not... thanks so much for repsonding!

Driving regulations differ from country to country. Here in Canada, it is mandatory to drive with the car's headlights on even in daytime. I believe it is called "automatic daytime running lights". It is to make cars more visible thus, safer. It is automatically on when you start the car. Of course the intensity of the light beam is lesser compared when you actually use the headlights during nighttime.


Headlights

I do but because they come on automatically when I start the car. If they didn't I am sure I would forget to turn them on.


myLot reputation of 93/100. xXxMikesWifeyxXx (2035)   ranked 231 out of 32,950 in life  4 years ago

I do not unless it's rainy or cloudy or something. Some cars have the daytime running lights because they may make you easier to spot, some people use them just in case. I'm not one of those people.

hi brittany:

i have a motorcycle but no car. i don't drive in day time with head lights on. i don't know with other people. but there are some new models of motorcycles here that headlights are always on. i have talked with one technician. he said that those new bikes have no switch for the headlights so it will always be on even on day time. somebody told that it was now standard release for new bikes...

Funny you ask because I actually do. I have daytime running lights but as if that isn't enough I still put on the regular headlights as well. I don't know why I do that but I guess it has just become a force of habit now.
