Other countries, other lights: Greece

It is forbidden to flash your lights at drivers, warning them of upcoming radar traps (as it is in Germany). So the Greek turn on their low beams instead. Frustrated policemen therefore like to maintain that driving with your lights on during the day is not permitted. And indeed, it was reserved for the military a few decades ago. Today, however, the government has set things straight: special daytime running lights also are permitted in Greece.
