Yup, altec got it correctly. :D I didnt mean 'rear foglamps' just plain foglamps mounted to face backwards. :D Oks talaga ito, but i wish they'd use their IQs and turn them off in the highway.

And while were at it, hindi ba kayo nababanas sa mga owner, PUJ na ang turn signal ay foglight?! Kakainis talaga!

mismo.

And while we're on the topic of lights....

what about those idiots who take the lenses off their CHMSTLs???(3rd brake lights). Putragis! Nakakasilaw!!!

There's this idiot i trailed in C5 in an EK who did this. Parang naka bright tuwing pre-preno. Binigyan ko nga ng Hi beams and matching foglights ng Paje. Umiiwas by switching to another lane..... but im a persistent little booger. :D

oo nga kups yang mga may white brake lights, I give them hell fogs brights throw everything to him.

style is wag ka tututok sa likod halfway dapat hit the sidemirrors and rear mirrors (this will really piss him off he he he).

yung iba kasi merong anti glare sa rear mirrors.

same technique sa mga nakabrights sa likod ko, I slow down REALLY slow, he will pass eventually then I trail him and give him hell.

actually, before dala ko yung .22 cal air hunting rifle ko. bullets explode on impact. kasama ko yung friend ko, may bus sa slex, may lamp na patalikod eh umuulan wala akong makita kundi water spray. binaril namin ilaw. pareho kami sharp shooters eh. hehe. napaswerve bus nung sumabog bigla yung ilaw niya haha.

minsan naman ginagawa ko yung foglamps ko tutok sa likod. pag may ganun, overtake ko sabay bukas ng roof lamps. bulag! hehe 5 pa naman yun...

just some info from the dmv:

25110. (a) The following vehicles may be equipped with utility flood or loading lamps mounted on the rear, and sides, that project a white light illuminating an area to the side or rear of the vehicle for a distance not to exceed 75 feet at the level of the roadway:

(1) Tow trucks that are used to tow disabled vehicles may display utility floodlights, but only during the period of preparation for towing at the location from which a disabled vehicle is to be towed.

(2) Ambulances used to respond to emergency calls may display utility flood and loading lights, but only at the scene of an emergency or while loading or unloading patients.

(3) Firefighting equipment designed and operated exclusively as such may display utility floodlamps only at the scene of an emergency.

(4) Vehicles used by law enforcement agencies or organizations engaged in the detoxification of alcoholics may display utility flood or loading lights when loading or unloading persons under the influence of intoxicants for transportation to detoxification centers or places of incarceration.

(5) Vehicles used by law enforcement agencies for mobile blood alcohol testing, drug evaluation, or field sobriety testing.

(6) Vehicles used by publicly or privately owned public utilities may display utility flood or loading lights when engaged in emergency roadside repair of electric, gas, telephone, telegraph, water, or sewer facilities.

(b) Lamps permitted under subdivision (a) shall not be lighted during darkness, except while the vehicle is parked, nor project any glaring light into the eyes of an approaching driver.

those truck operators need to read 6b?

Auxiliary Driving and Passing Lamps

24402. (a) Any motor vehicle may be equipped with not to exceed two auxiliary driving lamps mounted on the front at a height of not less than 16 inches nor more than 42 inches. Driving lamps are lamps designed for supplementing the upper beam from headlamps and may not be lighted with the lower beam.

(b) Any motor vehicle may be equipped with not to exceed two auxiliary passing lamps mounted on the front at a height of not less than 24 inches nor more than 42 inches. Passing lamps are lamps designed for supplementing the lower beam from headlamps and may also be lighted with the upper beam.

i think this is stating that when high beams are not to be used, neither should the aux lights?

Spotlamps

24404. (a) A motor vehicle may be equipped with not to exceed two white spotlamps, which shall not be used in substitution of headlamps.

(b) No spotlamp shall be equipped with any lamp source exceeding 32 standard candlepower or 30 watts nor project any glaring light into the eyes of an approaching driver.

(c) Every spotlamp shall be so directed when in use:

That no portion of the main substantially parallel beam of light will strike the roadway to the left of the prolongation of the left side line of the vehicle.

That the top of the beam will not strike the roadway at a distance in excess of 300 feet from the vehicle.

(d) This section does not apply to spotlamps on authorized emergency vehicles.

(e) No spotlamp when in use shall be directed so as to illuminate any other moving vehicle.
