Turn on your lights!

Standard

Over the last 4 months or so, I’ve seen several cars at night driving without their lights on!! Some of them had daytime running lights so there was a little bit of help but then there’s no tail lights. Others simply didn’t have any lights on at all. I think the new technology of xenon headlights spanning over a large area of space make these other people believe their headlights are on. Here’s what bothers me. I’ve tried to “alert” these people by flashing my own headlights or tapping on my brakes. Nothing. When people flash lights at me I at least look at my dash. What am I missing? Is there a system that I’m not aware of? Do they teach these things in driving school or driver’s ed? Why can’t three flashes or three taps of the brakes get people to think about this?
