Wipers on, lights on. PLEASE. Trucks and busses can't see you.

Chastise me for taking these photos but cars driving without their lights on in inclement weather is a nationwide epidemic. Large trucks and busses can't see you until you're right next to us. This shows what your vehicle looks like at the end on my trailer, mid trailer and just about to my cab. Make yourself visible! Don't rely on automatic headlights or day time running lights. Physically switch your headlights on. I'm at work and having one less idiot to babysit so I don't kill them would make my day just dandy 👌.

I cannot for the life of me fathom why engaging the wipers does not automatically turn the lights on. It should be an opt-out procedure to not have them on, not opt-in.

I don’t understand why some Countries like the U.S. don’t have laws for daytime running lights. With so many vehicles in the U.S. why would they be one of the countries on this list, that do not require this as standard. Same with turn signals as red lights instead or orange.
