    I think the rear fog light is more useful though - I use mine a lot in heavy rain, etc.

    Unattended with partly open windows is an offense? Why? What do they do if you own a mini Moke or a convertable? Is having the sunroof partly opened an offense too? I do both all the time in hot weather. It sounds like one of those laws that needs to be contested & taken off the books.

    Driving with what on your lap? Your dog? Your phone? Your missus? Your kids? The mind boggles.
    Woops typo A pet, a kid, your wife Any of them.

    See oldies and women around here trying to reach the wheel with a bloody dog in their lap Dog jumping around, car doing the same.

    Think its worth about $350 and 3 points here. So it should be as well hard enough to concentrate without that distraction.

    Leaving windows open when unattended is frowned on for obvious reasons and of course doesn't apply to motorbikes.

    Technically Mini Mokes can have side skirts with windows and convertibles probably should have the top up when parked.

    Same with Jeep wranglers. Don't know what the cops think as they haven't said anything.
    Used to see one of the Nobs in my area leave a Merc Kompressor parked for hours in a loading Zone with the top down and the parking wardens just ignored it despite several complaints.

    How she never got the stuff sitting in the back seat pinched I will never know..

    However the guy that got pinged was lucky as he got the cheapest ticket as the car was parked on the nature strip facing the wrong way.
    He got a $44 ticket when it could have been several hundred if the cop was nasty.

    True Fog lights don't turn, those are cornering lights as in the Passat The fogs are separate.

    Its the Falcadores with the unfocused "other" lights that are the biggest offenders and the real W++kers put halogens or HID's in them and blind everyone.

    The rear fogs are good if used properly but then again the same W++++s have them on at night and then you cant see the brake lights come on for the brightness of the fogs ( which I thought were actually parking lights as used in Europe)

    Bizarre.

    What do they do with convertables I wonder? I used to leave mine parked with the roof & windows down all the time. Or motorbikes for that matter.
