    In Victoria I believe they have already done this. Apparently you can have Fog lights only on foggy conditions but not both lights, like you say WTF. Can't remember but think the Tig only allows this. Just another revenue collector excuse. Wait until they bring in some law for Daytime running lights.

    The Tig will allow parkers on and fog lights as well.

    I just don't understand the ruling though. It's not like the fogs are bright like high beam or anything. All they really do is light up close to the roadway. Seriously this is really a joke. When they say fog lights, are they meaning like big spotties on large 4wds? Surely they can't be objecting to the fog lamps on the TIG?

    We have the same issue in the UK...as you say they are FOG lights intended for use in FOG but you get certain individuals who want to use them all the time along with any other extra lights they might have fitted badly,causing discomfort and danger for other road users..
    Rant over and hi to all from the UK

    As Blitzen pointed out in this post this topic has been covered to death and always seems to take a nasty path where insults are exchanged.

    Thank you to the OP for bringing the new laws to the attention of the community. I am now locking this topic.
