Use the same device for dickheads who can't work out when to turn their lights on. After a few welts they'll soon learn...
Amen to that brother! I blame the Constabulary for not stopping and prosecuting those wankers who insist on driving with their PARKING lights on. When I'm King, the switch that operates park lights will be hidden at the back of the glovebox and a car's light switch will have only one click that turns headlights ON and a toggle that dips them.
Parking lights do little to improve a vehicle's visibility whilst travelling.
These new LED "running lights" are just designer wankery. Pure ornamentation designed to impress the neighbours with your new expensive German car that you don't actually own, because the family trust has acquired it under sum tax-beneficial leasing arrangement. They're easily injection moulded into a plastic fitting and are pretty reliable but still require drivers to make a subsequent decision to turn their main headlights on when things get really dark. Ban them!
And then there are the wankers who drive with their lights on full beam, because they think that making themselves REALLY visible makes them even safer. Not when I'm out with my destructor ray gun it doesn't.
