    I honestly can’t tell if this is sarcasm since motorcycles and cars in the US have required daytime running lights for a couple decades.

      Nowhere in the US are cars required to use daytime running lights…certainly not in Ohio.

        Daytime running lights are required on large sections of the highway in Alaska. It’s posted on signs on the road and you can get ticketed for it.

        “( c ) Every vehicle traveling on a highway or vehicular way or area must illuminate lights when traveling on any roadway that is posted with signs requiring the use of headlights.

        (d) For the purposes of ( c ) of this section, lights include low intensity headlights and daytime running lamp devices…”

            I was responding to a previous comment that said “Nowhere in the US.” Alaska is still the United States.

        Car manufacturers are required to have daytime running lamps on all the cars they sell.

          While many car manufacturers provide this feature, it is not required. See 49 CFR 571.108 (Table I-a—Required Lamps and Reflective Devices).
