the "auto" setting
False sense of security. A lot of drivers assume their lights are on because it's automatic in driving rain, but they're not. Take a second and turn your lights on in the rain. I bet half the people complaining about people's hazards on in the rain are riding without their lights on without realizing it. Lights on and hazards off.

Before auto lights on was a thing a lot of people would only use what is called Parking lights (not direct beams) when it got to be dusk. It used to drive me nuts because why not put the lights all the way on? Are they conserving their actual headlights? I have noticed a sharp decrease in that but a big increase in the hazards thing. Also if it starts to rain people slam on their brakes and go 30 mph less immediately. To me that is more dangerous than maintaining your speed.

My headlights come on when I turn my wipers on (after 10 seconds or so) as they have in every vehicle I’ve owned with automatic headlights.
