I think Scott's point is that sometimes lights are not desireable.
having the option to turn them off is nice.  Highway use, who cares,
leave the DLR's on.  But back roads and exploring are another story.

Eventhough DLRs have been statistically shown to reduce accidents, they
are still just another piece of unnecessary legislation, reducing
personal responsibility.
