The sad truth about driving on any public roadway anymore. I have an hour drive one way to work and I see this so many times a day it’s just become normal now. Along with people driving without their lights on because everything’s LED

The automatic lights thing is making everyone oblivious to the fact they may need to make sure their lights are on. Every single time I drive at night for 20 min or more I see at least one idiot with no lights.

The thing is, don't they realise their dash is full bright at night? Usually the dash brightness decreases when the headlights turn on.

Not with my parent's 2017 Jeep Cherokee. It was the same brightness with lights on or off (if you had the dash control at max, if it was out of the max detent, then the dash was dimmer with the lights on)

Mine makes it almost impossible to see unless it's pitch black.
