I'm sorry, did the article say drivers were driving with their headlights switched off? No! We don't do that crap! Come on, people! Don't try to win a Darwin, that's how you get killed.
I feel like this is one of the FIRST things they should've tested out.
Give it hydrophobic properties?

Over here it is law to always have your headlights on, day or night. And it is a great law too, helps visibility a lot. Especially to reduce idiots who otherwise do not turn on lights in tunnels or other darker places during the day. Even during bright days it is easier to spot cars with lights on.

Then someone draws fake glow in the dark road lines OH SHIIII-
My car has always on lights but I still put my lights on when its raining hard.
My car has lights that turn on automatically when it gets dark, so I never have to worry about turning them on.
