Doesn't this just underline my point that DRLs are stupid (rhet.)? OK, they had a purpose, but only temporarily and now we're stuck with a white elephant.
I agree completely. But the original Swedish version did not have the flaw that there is no light at the back now with DRLs.
3 September 1967 now I've checked: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagen_H and this is why Volvos had permanent sidelights. Jasper Carrot had a sketch in the 1970s taking the piss out of the Volvo permanent sidlights.
My 2007 car has DRL but they can be disabled (by a dashboard switch, as opposed to needing some OBD tool to set the options).
That's illogical - if you did not see them how do you know they were actually there? Maybe you felt the impact?

It's not illogical – how can I count the ones I didn't see (because they're like a black cat in a coal hole)?!
Only with wire cutters, and I don't know whether that would then pass an MoT (or indeed if the OBD would then complain there are no lemon-scented paper napkins and refuse to start the car).
Yes I appreciate you could not count them but that is not my point, nor is it the answer to my question m'lud.
You don't need to be able to see something to know it exists.
It's not that clever. And he pre-dates it (or should that be he "predates" it?
).We'd never be able to co-ordinate something like that.
Welcome to the Matrix!Unless he's a figment of our collective imagination. What warped minds we must have.
Oh but you can, by process of mass hysterisis
Yes, on our Peugeot 2008, just a couple of presses on the touchscreen.
What year would that be?
It's a car. Bloody touchscreens, cars should have real buttons.

My feeling is that touchscreens should be totally disabled while on the move while having a small number of physical buttons / knobs for basic operation such as volume control.
