Rear fog lamps are an unfamiliar feature to many Malaysians as they usually aren’t on a car’s equipment list unless you have an European or premium make. However, they’re now a standard feature on all newly launched cars since 2013, as they are a requirement under the UN regulations that our country has adopted.
It’s no surprise then, that many motorists don’t know when a car’s rear fog lamp should be used. We end up with many who just leave them on all the time, and this poses a problem to everyone driving behind the person as rear fog lamps are very bright – we end up getting blinded by them.
UMW Toyota has created this educational video to explain when rear fog lamps should be used – basically they should only be used in low visibility situations such as fog as well as heavy rain.
Watch the video, take note, and share it with other drivers, please!

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments emphasize that rear fog lamps are often misused or turned on unnecessarily, causing glare and confusion while driving. Many Malaysians lack understanding of proper usage, with some drivers turning on fog lights in clear weather or during heavy rain without need. European regulations are more strict, and better education on safe usage is needed here. Some comments also criticize poor vehicle lighting and safety standards, highlighting the importance of responsible use and proper car feature regulation.
