View submission: Some knucklehead totaled my precious Prius Prime. RIP to a real one
It was snowing pretty bad yesterday and I flashed my headlights at anyone who didn’t have their lights on. I probably did it to at least 12 cars and only one got the message. People can be so ignorant.

Auto lights have really done a number on people setting and forgetting.
I recently traded in a car where I had to manually turn on and off the lights. My new car has auto lights but I ended up turning off that feature because I found myself not paying attention to if they were on or not. And they wouldn't turn on unless it was really dark out. So that weird time of sunset when it's still light out but cars can be hard to see? Yeah I was starting to become that person.
It really became an issue I broke when I was crashed into in a downpour by someone without their lights on, only then realizing that mine weren't on either despite it being dark out enough that you'd think the sensors would kick in.
