Odd lights



There is no purpose in having one light for main beam and one for
dipped, it is simply a legal requirement (and so by definition has no
purpose?)
I think the argument runs something like: If you're a two-wheeled
vehicle you're allowed one light on at once, if you've more you're
allowed more, unless you're a train, and then you need three.
But, as usual, I digress.
It is not logic I agree with, but the powers that decide seem to think
that a bike with two lights on and only 10 yards behind you looks the
same as a car would appear 100 yards behind you. And so, in order to
avoid confusion in the minds of those few Volvo drivers who look in
their mirrors anyway...
