Hello, with the foggy driving conditions today I wanted to remind drivers of the different lights at their disposal and when to use them. In foggy conditions (day or night), you should be driving with low-beams, tail lights, and fog lights turned on. You should not be using high-beams (reason explained below).

The stretch of highway on SW Marine Drive was incredibly foggy today. I saw multiple white/light colored cars driving in the fog with no lights turned on. If that was you, know that you blend right into the fog when viewed from a distance (during the day). Likewise, dark car, driving in the dark, you blend right in. For your own safety, please make sure the proper lights are switched on.

When you get into your car, take 15 seconds to familiarize yourself with your lighting panel and your indicator stock. Fog lights are usually located on the indicator stock (on the left). Some cars have an entire panel dedicated to lights. Your dashboard will tell you what lights you are running. If you look down and notice a blue headlight icon, your high beams are turned on. Turn that off because they probably shouldn't be on. If you're driving normally and someone behind you is flashing their high beams at you, chances are, your tail lights aren't turned on. Please turn them on. Just because your headlights are turned on does not mean your tail lights are turned on. It could also be good just to do a quick inspection of the exterior lights on your vehicle to make sure everything works as it should. There will be more foggy days and maybe even snowy days in the coming months. Do it for your own safety and the safety of road users.

• Low-beams: The standard headlights you use when driving at night. Good for city use and highway use.

• High-beams: Use high beams when driving alone on the highway or dark roads with minimal lighting or wildlife. Please be mindful that when you're driving around people, using high-beams will blind other road users. It's common courtesy to switch off your high beams as you pass an oncoming driver or when coming up behind someone.

• Fog lights: As the name suggests, these are specifically designed for foggy conditions. These lights are placed lower and angled to the ground, making them preferable over high-beams in the fog because high-beams cast a visible beam of light that actually worsens your vision. Fog lights also aid in helping other road users see you in their mirrors. Some cars also have additional rear fog lights that make your tail lights brighter.

• Tail lights: These are lights that light up the back of your car. These are really important when driving at night or in limited visibility conditions like fog. It allows road users approaching from behind to spot you. If you're driving a black car at night without your tail lights on, you are basically invisible to other road users from behind.

TL;DR: Foggy conditions: drive with low-beams, tail lights, fog lights, and DRLs (if you have them). The icons on your dash tell you what you have turned on.

Didn't see him today, wonder where he is.

please let me know - open to students too, located on ubc campus studio

Anyone looking to take the Canada Line from Broadway to Waterfront, the train is suspended rn because of some police incident. I’m at the station and they haven’t said when the service will restart. Plan your commute accordingly :)

EDIT: All resolved now!

I'm a new student this term and have insurance through studentcare. I just tried to use direct to pay insurance with my dental office but it didn't go through. Is anyone else having trouble? I went to the office and they said the blackout period ended at the end of November so it should be on now.

I know posting here isn't gonna do anything but I just need to rant.

I don't care if you talk when you are in a normal place. But when you're in a specific QUIET STUDY ZONE, please STFU.

I am in a quiet study zone in a library rn and there's a group of mf who keep talking. Like bro take this downstairs to the non-quiet zone PLEASE.

Guys stop being absolute menaces to society and flush the toilets after using them.

I wanna thank him for being a great teacher and a kind person, but I can't think of anything that wouldn't seem weird. He's honestly one of the coolest profs I've ever had. We haven't built a huge rapport or anything but when I did go to his office hours we had a great conversation about random, non-school stuff for a solid 20 mins, and he made an exception to let me into his class when I emailed him at the start of the term, even though it was full.

Is there anything small I could give him that would be an appropriate "thank you"? Have you ever given a gift to a good prof? I'm also getting emo about graduating soon so maybe my judgment is clouded and the best gift would be to get out of his hair.
