Daytime running lights

There you go - you can sound like a normal person after all. If someone else had said that you would found some sort of reason to argue against them.
No I wouldn't.

You just need to disabuse yourself of the notion that you can't possibly ever be mistaken, and that views you disagree with can't possibly ever be right.


There have been occasions where I have half thought about jumping out and pressing the button myself :LOL:
I did once ask my wife to do that. She didn't think I was serious.

But on the bright side - we were turning right out of the side road, and the crossing was on the main road to the right, so if she had done it she would genuinely have needed to cross the road so that I could have picked her up.

Oh yes that is a good one.
Same as when a pedestrian presses the crossing button and I am the only car coming or they can see its a few cars and then nothing - why cant they just wait 20 seconds longer and let the run of cars pass. Its what I do when crossing and i can see the end of the stream of cars is coming rather than stopping 7 cars with engines ticking over - or even worse stop star puffing out extra fumes .
What don't you understand about stop/start ?

You know what I put that bit in there deliberately to flush out the "argumentative for the sake of it" people and you did not disappoint :LOL:

But you must genuinely have thought that stop-start is worse than idling. Otherwise you know what you were doing there, don't you.
 
Some people just press the button, before even looking to see if there might be a need. Me, I feel safer walking a cross, ignoring the lights, some drivers go through against the red anyway.
I had a muppet this morning who crossed safely during a gap in the traffic and then pressed the button after he had crossed. :rolleyes:

Depends on how long the idle is/ type of fuel/size of engine/ whether or not the car is designed that way or you are just turning off the engine on a non stop and start car I suppose.

Now you are just digging a bigger hole.
