Does the front fog lamp work? Why do many cars cancel the front fog lights ?
When driving in foggy days, the visibility is low. The front fog lamp is the most effective tool to illuminate the road ahead. It has particularly strong penetration. In addition, the vehicles in front can also see the vehicles behind, and the pedestrians on both sides of the road can also see it.
Fog lights are so useful that they should be installed on all cars. Why are more and more models not installed now? In fact, the most important thing is to reduce the allocation and save costs. The state stipulates that vehicles must be equipped with rear fog lamps, but there is no mandatory requirement for front fog lamps. Therefore, since there is no mandatory requirement and car owners usually use less, the low configuration models will be cancelled, and the vehicle price will also be reduced, which is more conducive to market competition. Buying a simple scooter will not pay special attention to whether there are fog lights or not. If you want a fog lamp, buy a high configuration.
For some high-end cars, the fog lamps are cancelled openly on the grounds of adding daytime running lights or simply that the fog lamps have been integrated into the headlamp assembly. In fact, there is still a gap between the effects of these two lights and fog lights. In foggy days, the penetration of driving lights is not as good as fog lights, so they can't be seen at a distance. They can only play their role when the weather is good. The integrated fog lamp of the headlamp is relatively better, but because the installation position of the headlamp is too high, there is still a big gap between the vehicle's own lighting in heavy fog and the single fog lamp. The installation height of the single fog lamp is low, the penetration is good, and the road surface illuminated by the driver is far away.
Fog lights are very useful in foggy days, but we'd better not turn on the fog lights when the weather is good, because its light source is divergent, and both the opposite vehicle and the driver in front will look very dazzling
Seeing this, you should already understand why your car doesn't have front fog lights. If it's a high-end model, you don't have to consider that there will be potential safety hazards for driving without independent front fog lights; Vehicles without front fog lights but with daytime running lights can also cope with warning tasks in ordinary rainy and foggy weather; However, for owners who have neither front fog lamp nor daytime running lamp, it is recommended to install daytime running lamp or front fog lamp. After all, safety is the first thing to drive.
