    RotR is merely a set of guidelines, not a legally binding document, and is a very poorly and written attempt at that.

    From ROAD TRAFFIC (LIGHTING OF VEHICLES) REGULATIONS, 1963.

    (8) Where a vehicle equipped with a fog lamp within the meaning of article 44 of these Regulations is used in a public place, such lamp shall be used only in fog or while snow is falling.
    Long since time they re-wrote that book of regulations. 1963? Good old Éire.

    That is the basic act, there have been numerous amendments since then. They don't re-write an entire act just to change one small detail. Anyway, it's just as valid now as it was then, apart from the fact that virtually nobody had fog lamps in 1963. Just goes to show how forward looking they were :)

    Not too many cars then, let alone lamps!
