Can you be seen?

I just sat counting cars for a moment.
The result out of 30 cars:

8 NO lights
12 sidelights
10 dipped lights
(6 of these with faulty head/tail lights!)
All in reasonable FOG!

Please! As drivers take a moment to think!

I was talking to an ambulance driver the other day, he mentioned the obsession with PARKING (side) lights. He said that they stand no chance spotting these when responding to a shout, and the offending car stands no chance in an argument with an emergency appliance.
Modern headlights, if correctly adjusted, are not blinding so SHOULD be used when visability is reduced. FOG lights if visability is reduced to 100m or less.

And as for those with lights not working - regular checks SAVE LIVES. Take a minute to check, it may save your life!
