Default Important info

White lights = driving lights
Yellow lights = fog lights

There is a misconception out there that I hear on the cb radio all the time with drivers telling other drivers that they don't need their fog lights on when in all reality they actually are running with their driving lights on.

If you don't believe me check the boxes next time you are at an auto parts store.

Usually its the adjustment that bothers most drivers.If they are adjusted properly then I personally see no problem with them.I used them myself but I also take the time to make sure they are adjusted properly.After all they are a tool for you to use to see the road not the stars or the whites of other drivers eyes.

ADJUST THEM OR TURN THEM OFF..

Regardless of what color they are and even though it is never enforced, in the state of PA they are called multi-beam lights and are subject to the same use as high beam lights. In other words within 500 ft. of an oncoming vehicle or following a vehicle 500 ft or less ahead of you they are required to be off. It is never enforced any more though. I remember when I first started driving cars back in 1974, the police were always harassing us about them! Maybe the law was changed recently, but I know as of 5 years ago a state trooper told us that at a safety meeting!

They can still be adjusted. Its a plastic knob on the back side of the light.I drove a 2005 Columbia Class for awhile.
