Reading this thread is making me think that DRLs in the states is just like the metric system, and the Kyoto Accord. If you don't want to "jump on the bandwagon" that's fine, but come on, change can be good. Seriously, do DRLs really bother Americans that much? Is it really a life changing event? Does it really make or break your decision on purchasing a vehicle? If all vehicles came with DRLs would you just not purchase a car? Do you really feel more/less safe when driving a vehicle with DRLs?
Let's focus on the more dangerous things on the road instead of DRLs:
- Driving under the influence.
- Not wearing a safety belt.
- Not properly securing all cargo, including loose gravel.
- Not properly securing children in the back seat in a proper child seat.
- etc. etc.
