    It’s mostly newer cars that I see going around without their tail lights on. I only drive older cars so I don’t know from personal experience, but I think ‘automatic headights’ might more likely be part of the problem.

      automatic headlights turn on when a light sensor on the dash detects that it’s dark enough out to need the headlights on, when the headlights are on, the tail running lights are on as well. If you see a car at night with it’s tail lights off, it either doesn’t have automatic headlights or the dumbass at the wheel turned them off.
