Not talking about what we all know as fog lights, but rather a single more piercing beam that would serve the same function as a rear fog, but for opposing traffic.
Have run into a couple of seemingly increasing problems while driving to work in the thick morning Central Valley fog on 2 lane country roads. First, there are entirely TOO MANY people driving without their headlights on, and even worse some of them like to pass in this thick fog. This has resulted in a couple closer-than-I'd-like calls with oncoming traffic in my lane.
Also there are times where I have to pass slow-moving trucks in the little "clear" patches between the fog, and I'd love to be able to alert potential oncoming traffic that is beyond the clear patch.
Wouldnt something like a very narrow & flat pencil beam mounted low around the bumper, perhaps in a more glare resistant color (yellow or amber) help in these situations?
Specifically referring to morning/daytime light conditions where headlight serve only to alert other cars of your presence. Never to be used when dark.
