Default driving lights = 3points

hey guys i was just reading the local paper down here in the country regions of vic and noticed a story about driving/fog lights
"the bass coast traffic management unit will be targeting motorists who commit lightinh offences oer the next couple of months."
"road rule 217 states a driver must not operate any front or rear fog light unless the driver is driving in fog or other hazardous weather conditions causing reduced visibility"

i think this is the most stupidest thing i read there called driving lights for a reason yeah during the day you shouldnt have them on like you see around on other cars but at night some times you just need that extra bit of light and they are great.
i use them every time i drive my girlfriends r33 skyline at night manly because the headlights arnt that great but the help seing rite in front of you.

i like the there main reason for the law to come in
"the change in the legislation were made due to the large number of complaints made by members of the public about being "Dazzled" by fog lamps being used in clear conditions"
thats so stupid

if you get caught with them on you face a fine from $119.00 - $153.00 and 3 demerit points :

next time you drive at nite do me a favour count the cars with there driving lights its almost every third car

so what do you think about this?
thanks
pat
