not many bikers are mad enough to venture out when the visibility of myopic car drivers is compromised further.
That said, I cannot remember the last time I used fog lights. Yes we have had thick mist but not real fog for ages round here. If you read the highway code, fog lights shouldn't be used unless visibility is below 100m. To put it in a way that people may understand though they should say, if its safe to do 70mph then you don't need them as the stopping distance at 70mph is roughly 100m.
