Default Poll: Drive with Parking Lights On or Off during the day?

Just figured I'd make a poll see how many do this or not?

Almost every magazine there is always a shot or a picture of the Z just riding with its parking lights on. I know this is common practice amongst Corvette owners like its a unwritten rule or something. Was wondering if Z owners are rolling the same.

If your in Canada you have no choice with the DRL's

I do because its a proven fact that those with headlights on at all times have a lower risk of getting in a crash. I guess it has to do with the other guy having a higher chance of seeing you coming.

Do you have access to a report that "proves this fact"? I have heard it both ways. I am curious to see the studies that prove it. I would have hoped that DRL's would be mandatory if the US DOT had a report proving they reduced accidents. Air bags, belts, tire pressure monitors are mandatory, they were proven.

99% of the time for me I have them on...but that's because my LED's are tied into my parking lights
