Fog lights on Cars

Why do Irish people believe that if a car has fog lights on their car that they need to be on morning, noon and night, do these people not realise that the lights are there as a safety feature while driving in fog and not fashion accessories to be shown off at all times. Are these same idiots unaware that front fog lights actually dazzle on coming drivers? The worst offenders are the boy racers who happen to be the biggest proportion of road kills in Ireland.
