Dare I "nail my colours to the mast" and say that I'm really not a fan of DRL's.
I've got used to the old-style Volvo dim-dip lights, and while I generally think they're pointless at least they're not dazzling as many of the latest DRL's are.
I find them extremely distracting when driving on normal 2-way roads, they do much more than indicate where a vehicle is.
Now I don't know how many of these are add-on's as opposed to OEM but the majority of the ones I see are far too intense and bright, almost as bad as a full-beam headlight. I suspect this may partly be because they emit a lot of light from a small area, but equally what are the rules on alignment and brightness levels?
Some of the worst seem to be on the latest Audis and Mercs.
