365 Days of Gratitude - Day 253

Let me start by saying we had a terrific day on the road and we are currently camped in a state park not far from one of my 'mountain biking bucket list' trailheads. Which means we're in pretty darn good moods.

But...our morning started in dense fog and it reminded me of my car light pet peeve.

As we drove down the highway it was apparent 99% of the cars coming towards us on the interstate highway had their head lights on. But only 30% of the cars in front of us on our side of the divided highway had tail lights on.

I'm no expert in car mechanics but I'm guessing most of those folks think that their 'daytime running lights' means their lights are on and they need not do a thing. Last I checked, daytime running lights are headlights only, which means you have no tail lights on and leave the world behind you guessing about your whereabouts in fog - in rain - in snow - in dusk and dawn.

Please people - go out and check your vehicle lights to see when and if your tail lights are on. 

There. That's my good deed for the day :)

Feeling grateful,

Louise
