Fog Lamps and Brush Guards Make Trucks Safer
Wednesday, November 26th, 2008 6:52 pmDo you have fog lights on your vehicle? If not, you might want to seriously consider getting some installed. With the help of fog lights, you can significantly increase visibility while driving and drive more safely. In fact, according to a press release from BuyAutoTruckAccessories.com, this fact has been backed by research conducted at the University of Michigan.”Fog lamps are designed primarily to increase driver comfort and security,” the press release quoted from Michael J. Flannagan’s The Safety of Current and Improved Front Fog Lamps 2001 report. “The peripheral illumination production of front fog lamps enhanced driver visibility of positional cues needed or vehicle control.”Due to this report, BuyAutoTruckAccessories.com recommends installing fog lamps on trucks along with brush guards, which are also commonly referred to as grille guards. The brush guard is installed on the SUV or truck in order to provide extra protection to the front of the vehicle as well as to provide a place for the fog lamps to be mounted. Many people install these guards simply because of the way they look, but they actually offer a very useful purpose and make the vehicle safer to drive on road and off road as well.
