Yep. It's just another $100+ Flash for cash BS scheme.
I've had 50 + years on the road, never been dazzled by fog lamps, but from Chrome, rear vision mirrors & window reflection,? all the time.
They are 55 watt amber lights set low. Puleese??!!
My fog light switch is down near my right knee, for a reason.
It's quite possible to drive another 40K's not knowing they are on after coming out of the fog.
One narky cop, & it's "Gotcha!!"
It's just another scam.

No they're not. The ones on the newer cars aren't. They are white and bright and are like mini high beams.

It has to do with what is known as "Rayleigh Scattering" and it's all to do with particle sizes and wavelengths.

The ONLY true fix is Infrared scanning laser from an angle criss-cross from each corner of the car.
And night vision goggles.

Yeah ..well I didn't even attempt getting that through RVCS.

Agreed but that will not stop the 'ktards with ultrabrites and sadly you also would be blinded by the very same..
(As much as i love the idea)

All have foglights bigger than the headlights and are often upgraded to higher wattages.

Subaru

Now that I have a lightbar, next time I'm blinded by some clown with his fogs on when where isn't any fog, they are going to get the full flash treatment - high beam, lightbar and spots - the lot.

That's a lot of the problem up here as well.
