Why do so many morons drive around with their PARKING lights on???

Also, why do people sit parked with their DRIVING/HEADLIGHTS on???? Am I the only person that clicks my headlights off when I pull into a drive-through? Don't anybody give me that crap about modern cars and automatic/daytime running lights either, all you have to do is press or pull the parking brake lever one or two clicks to make the headlights go out when you don't have headlights selected! My personal car is an older one and what I drive at work is a 2002 and a 2004. Just click the parking brake one or two clicks, then release it when you're ready to resume normal driving...If you're incapable of those simple functions, maybe you should reconsider driving all together!!!

Update:

Kristina.....You don't need to fully apply your parking brake.....the idea isn't to engage the rotor or drum, the car will still roll when you take your foot off the regular brake.....

    o.k., I know you said don't say this, but my parking lights and headlights come on automatically too. I am not going to go through a drive-thru and everytime a car moves up and I get to move up a spot, pull my emergency brake up....not gonna happen. Just get over it?

    Mile for mile, women human beings get in extra injuries. yet because adult adult males stress a lot more beneficial than women human beings, they get in extra contained in the tally. adult adult males commonly have driving jobs like cab and truck drivers. What somewhat sucks for adult adult males is that all that publicity on the line is often done in a motor vehicle it somewhat is insured one at a time from their own own motor vehicle. they are insured two times. So at the same time as they get a value tag driving a large rig, it will boost their own motor vehicle coverage costs-even although they are by no skill abode to stress it and reason the own coverage any danger. the actual shown reality that they are uncovered to rushing and different site visitors value tag hazards (truck drivers are continuously stopped and inspected for 1000's of conceivable violations) a minimum of ten circumstances more beneficial than maximum women human beings or non occupation drivers does no longer mean they are extra risky. It only skill they stress so a lot extra. somewhat previous woman that drives to church once per week would nicely be a horribly risky driver yet no one would understand because the route is straightforward and the possibilities of a cop being round to bust her 20 minutes per week are very low.

    The primary reason for that is they forgot they turned them on. Another reason is they are towing something or pushing something. What's more some are heading to the hospital and want you to get out of their way. And last but not least they may be trying to get your attention because they are being kidnapped.

    Before they were called parking lights, they were RUNNING lights.

    I won't go into what I think of modern cars. Everything is so automated the driver barely needs to think anymore. So many of them don't.

    And that's dangerous.
