Well I'll try removing the fuse and see if they go out. There really is no safety reason to have DRLs. I actually hate the fact that there are DRLs on cars. I ride a bike quite often and since there are DRLs on a lot of newer cars it makes bikes less visible because people are more used to seeing DRLs that they don't bother to notice as much. How can DRLs make you safer? Most of the time that I see people driving around at night without headlights on they have those stupid DRLs, and most people are too dumb to realize that DRLs do not turn on your rear lights and they usually are not that bright.
