You said you live in the Mid West. Try living in New England where 90% of
the roads are poorly lit, some with no lights at all, and the rest are
twisty, winding, hilly roads in the middle of no where. Then lets add rain,
sleet, snow, and fog on top of that. It must be nice living in the FLAT,
OPEN, and Temperate mid west! I have fog lights on my car in new England and
keep them on all the time and don't have a problem with others that have
theirs on all the time. If you have that much trouble with your eyes, maybe
you should drive...or wear sunglasses.
