Saves fuel to run sidelights only on my car.
Haha, have got to admit the fuel consumption thing did cross my mind, but only in a theoretical sense, I definitely notice the engine note changing when I run AC etc.
Is that even a real problem? I’ve never been bothered by a split second of extra light as an oncoming car went over a bump, do you really drive around with sidelights on for that reason?
Ever driven in Edinburgh? 😉 It’s not like you’re getting blinded, but it is annoying, in fact it’s sometimes hard to distinguish if someone is flashing you or just bumping through the troughs in the cobbles with their dipped headlights.
Anyway, curiosity satisfied, at least some people agree I was trying to do the right think but seems like more good reasons to go dipped than not.
