...misread the original question there richard, sorry ....I asked one my patients that is a police officer that same question...they said they can give you a ticket for it due to it not being an actual headlight...for me it's a safety issue...if the AE's aren't giing me enough light, I turn the headlights on...most of the time I leave my lights in auto mode and let the car decide

Technically it's illegal to drive with just your parking lights on but if you are pulled over, just play dumb and say you thought it was the headlights.
