All driving lamps are extremely bright and must be dimmed with the high beams. http://www.sportscar-parts.com/beam.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 mins (2009-02-19 12:00:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Driving lamp" is a term deriving from the early days of nighttime driving, when it was relatively rare to encounter an opposing vehicle. Only on those occasions when opposing drivers passed each other would the dipped or "passing" beam be used. The full beam was therefore known as the driving beam, and this terminology is still found in international ECE Regulations, which do not distinguish between a vehicle's primary (mandatory) and auxiliary (optional) upper/driving beam lamps. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_lighting |
