Wait till someone runs into your one a not so bright day. I've almost backed into this 90 integra that always drive by when i go out in the morning... At a glance, it looks like just like any other car parked on the street without the headlights on (DRL) as it's not dark enough to actually turn on the headlights.

Besides...there's a light in the cluster that tells you if your tail lights are on or not. I'm also wondering how could someone drive 30hours without even looking at ANYTHING else than the cluster ?? I mean, don't anybody have to tinkle with the HVAC during a couple hours of drive ??

After 24 hours of driving you pull off into a parking lot and jack the seat back for a 30 min snooze. It'l perk you up just enough for that last fifty miles without putting it in the ditch when you fall asleep. When you wake up you can drive but Sherlock Holmes you ain't.
