Turn on your lights

In response to “Use Lights for Safety” which appeared in the Jan. 11-17 issue of North Country This Week: I totally agree with you about drivers not turning their lights on in bad weather and at dusk and dawn and have seen those foolish drivers too. As a woman driver, I hate to say this, but it’s most often women who don’t follow the laws in regards to lights. Long ago I came to the conclusion that given our dusk and dawn issues, snow and rain much of the year, and the fact that I’d forget to turn the bloody things on that I would adopt the rule of always turning my lights on as soon as I turned the key in the ignition. That way, I’m covered and I don’t pose a risk to others, well not because of lack of lights at any rate.
