You don't even get to see them when you're driving your car!

Anyone that has been ticketed for this deserves the ticket.
I fully agree with SD Z4MR and the others on this aspect. Why reduce the effectiveness of your lights? Personally, I wish they were brighter and more visible. Our cars have dual intensity brake lights with the brighter level activated under heavy/hard braking. I would like to see the brighter lights all the time.
