I've had my DRL (which uses the headlights) deactivated by the dealer.
I switch on the lights if and when needed, as I had been doing the 15 years or so before.

DRL have become mandatory fitment on new EU vehicles this year.
These are now usually lower-power LEDs.
How did we get by without DRL's for nearly a century?

DRL's add to the cost of the vehicle. Their imposition certainly benefited bulb manufacturers. I say "imposition" because without providing a switch to turn them off that's what it is - an imposition.
