View submission: Some knucklehead totaled my precious Prius Prime. RIP to a real one
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.

I’m glad you’re ok to share your story. But agreed. I have auto lights but found out like a week ago that I have a dash light for when they are on so I try to pay better attention to it now.
