My previous car didn't have DRLs - but I turned lights on every time I turned the key!
Agree. Proper DRLs are a great safety feature. Where I have a problem is where proper headlights are lit in proper daylight. It always seems to me to be a waste of bulb life and 2 x 55w power. The earlier 'dim-dip' implementation seemed a better solution, but this (I think) went out of favour.
