Another pearl of wisdom from our masters in europe.

In response to a parliamentary question, Jim Fitzpatrick, the road
unsafety minister, said: "The UK has been successful in arguing
against the introduction of mandatory use of dipped headlamps during
daylight hours by drivers of existing vehicles.

'However, from early 2011 all new types of passenger cars and light
vans will have to be fitted with dedicated daytime running lamps in
accordance with the relevant European directive. By summer 2012 all
new vehicles will have to be so fitted.


Which will simply reduce visibility etc, and make the roads more hazardous
for us.
