The "quote of the day" I just got from logging into elfie:

Fog Lamps, n.: Excessively (often obnoxiously) bright lamps mounted on the fronts of automobiles; used on dry, clear nights to indicate that the
driver's brain is in a fog. See also "Idiot Lights".

Except that's not quite valid in virginia. Legally, in our lovely commonwealth, if you *have* fog lamps, they *must* be on at all times when your normal headlamps are on. Weather doesn't enter into it. They must be on the same switch - if they're on a separate "turn the fog lamps on because it's
foggy" switch, then you'll fail inspection.

So the idiot driving down the clear, moonlight night with his fog lamps on had no choice about it.
