MA just passed a new lights on with headlamps. Is there a way to recode my cecm to allow that?
Or just always have your headlights onEasy work around; just turn lights on.
Not true. DRL's do not turn on your tail lights. And the point of the law, and common sense, is that YOU can be seen, not for you to be able to see.Or just always have your headlights on
Or, kinda the same thing, just don't disable your DRLs. If those are working, you should really have no problem.
Never occurred to me. Thanks for the insightNot true. DRL's do not turn on your tail lights. And the point of the law, and common sense, is that YOU can be seen, not for you to be able to see.

Really? Why? Just another nanny state regulation. If I'm in weather conditions that requires additional lighting to be seen, I reach down to this thing called a light switch and select the appropriate lighting for the conditions.I wish more states would enforce this.
This isn't really nanny state territory... Banning soda drinks over 1 litre? Yeah, ok... but headlights in the rain?Really? Why? Just another nanny state regulation.

If a person is such an imbecile that they can't operate their car in a safe and responsible manner, they should just stop driving.
Unfortunately, the other person's visibility (or lack thereof) poses an unnecessary risk to those of us who try to do the right and responsible thing. Oh, and taken to its logical conclusion, if a person is such an imbecile, enforcement of these laws would actually increase that imbecile's odds of losing their license, which would at least push them into the direction of stopping driving.Really?

I agree, I'm a lights-on guy 24/7, as in WHENEVER moving on the road even on the sunniest of days. I have several reasons for this and have converted a few people to the same policy.Really? Why?

This. DRLs are supposed to be safer, and yet the net effect seems to be that so many people drive around in poorly lit conditions without taillights. Right now the dash lights seem to be the only thing compelling people to turn their lights on. God forbid we ever get daytime running dash lights as well!DRLs are making bigger idiots of people I've noticed and once I've counted on one pitch black 5am winter morning 17 people who didn't have their normal lights on because DRLs are main headlights they don't notice they're tail lights aren't lit. And that was only a 40 minute drive
I nearly hit one of these idiots as he pulled out without signaling. That same kind of moment you just about see a deer jump out in front of you and correct your speed
Kudos to the people that actually know when to turn them on. Even my finances mother thinks it's fine to drive around with her full beams on everywhere!! Facepalm
Many cars already like this. Both my '11s are....God forbid we ever get daytime running dash lights as well!
Back to the OP's question though. Is it possible to code the headlights to turn on when you turn on your wipers? I've looked through some of the coding with my VCDS, but didn't see it anywhere.
