Now, I don't want to be THAT guy.

You know, the one who's always gettin' all hair-splitty and such, but...and correct me if I'm wrong, wouldn't a better place for your foglights be as close to the ground as possible?

Why so high up? Isn't is better to "backlight the bad weather"? I mean, send light as directly to the road as possible and then through the diffractive medium (be it rain, snow, fog, whatever) to your eyes instead of through it twice? I realize this is highly off-topic, but I've always kinda wondered about this. So the lights are probably great for clear weather, better peripheral lighting and all, but how useful are they in bad? This applies to over cab light bars as well.

Yeah, I was one of those kids that drove their folks crazy with questions. My sunday school teacher wasn't too crazy about me either.
