I largely agree with you about automated systems, but, with the nights drawing in, it's getting dark at going home time and I'm noticing the usual crop of idiots "hiding" amongst the rest of us with no lights on. If coming towards you some have the saving grace of DRLs but if behind them you only really notice them when you're blinded by their LED tail and high level brake lights. By the way, these very bright headlights which some of the newer cars now have, make it quite difficult sometimes to see a car, which may be only on sidelights - I know, should have the headlights on but there are still idiots who creep around on side lights - and as for bikes, well, even the ones who've bothered to fit lights are almost impossible to see if one of these modern solar infernos is approaching!
