I am about to set off on a road trip and will be traveling in some foggy areas. I have a set of fog lights on my Westy, the German ones that fit next to the turn signals. I am a bit confused on how to use them. Do I use them instead of, or in addition to, the low beam headlights? Are fog lights good for heavy rain, too? I want to drive safely, but don't want to blind or annoy oncoming traffic, as I am already annoying those in back of me with my slow pace. Also, is there any difference between a clear (white) lens and a blue lens? Final question: does anyone know why California prohibits you from just having your parking lights on while driving, like at dusk? Where I came from (Hawaii) this was standard practice during the dawn/dusk hours.
Thanks!
