People have told me that I am "a half a bubble off"

I have to point my right headlight down and to the right to see the white fog lines. I’m sure the car looks weird when approaching it at night, but I don’t give a hoot as long as I can still see when a car or truck with halogens is approaching.

In the fog, on country roads, we used a spotlight & focused it on the grass, at the edge of the road.
Ever get LOST in the fog, on a DARK night???
Years back, here on Freeway 99, we had a 150 Car & Big Rig pile up, in the fog. It was like an ERIE NIGHTMARE!!!! It was SO confusing, it even caused a pile up, in the opposing direction!!!! Tow Trucks were even sent in from neighboring towns!
