Where it automatically turns them on when it's dark enough.

Is there any reason NOT to just have it always set to this?

My car has this, too. Sometimes when it's really bright outside and raining/foggy, you'll need to manually turn the lights on.

It always seems to be white/grey/silver vehicles who don't get this.

even when you turn them off, the next time you turn your car on and it is dark they will turn on again anyway.

At least my '15 does.

Even my old ass car has this feature. I don't know why people don't use it. I regularly see cars with no headlights on in the morning, when it is DARK out. Almost got into a accident cause I was making a right turn and didn't see this idiot coming down the road cause he didn't have headlights on. The idiot proceeds to move to the left lane, and then cut in front of me and break check me. I was half tempted to ram into his car. My old ass car is a tank, so wouldn't take much damage from that.

Youre supposed to have your headlights turned on when its raining and youre using your wipers.

Just in case people question why this is, its because youre at a lower visibility level when its raining.

This is why I hate those people that use the auto setting and never manually turn on their lights.

They never realize that people like me, look for headlights when making turns and such. If your lights arent on, you may be invisible to some people

Ya its a law here in MO to do that, but many think its optional...

Most cars have this feature nowadays. On my Acura, I can also customize the light sensitivity of the sensor as well. My fiance's Mazda is weird such that the lights are only auto off but not auto on/off like everyone else.

What annoys me most is seeing cars that I know are equipped with it (like any Toyota) driving along with no lights on at dusk/dawn. I mean, really? It's set and forget bro.

I know it's not new, just didnt know if there was a point to using the manual lights anymore. It's a 2015 Dodge Dart.
