you can use fogs but turn them off when some ones behind you.the last thing any one needs when its raining,dark and busy is a big red light glaring
them in the face.

High intensity rear fog lights in rain causes uncomfortable and distracting glare.

not at all, IMHO. A pair of 5w tail lights is nowhere near enough to see someone properly on a motorway in bad rain. A 21w fog light makes all the
difference. Maybe we are on about different levels of rain?

If this is the case then you are too close to the car in front.

On the whole, rear fog lights are an annoyance. You might use them a couple days a year, but get blinded by others using them far more often than
that.
Jollygreen -your example showed someone willfully showing road rage - I dont think making someone pass a test every few years would change that.
