Can Someone explain what this refers to? I am not familiar at all with this.

What is the DRL on a car?


Daytime Running Lights allow other drivers to see you on the road, which decreases the chances of collisions.
The lights stay on even when the parking brake is activated.
Once you turn your vehicle off, the daytime running lights will turn off as well.

Day light running lights come on , low power as soon as you start the truck or car , the tail lights do not come on until you turn on your head lights with switch, then everything works as normal.
Around town in the evening when dark you will see people , nearly always small SUV with no tail lights on as they forget because the street lights and DRL are enough to drive around slow.
In Canada they have been around since 1989.
On the older stuff without them, you are legal not having them, as it was not factory installed, same with seat belts, I had lots of old cars and trucks with out them ,and I was legal driving them
Some seem to hate DRL lights, I don't know why ,Guess being a old fart , I think they are a good idea. As are seat belts and air bags.
Now if we could just figure out why horse trailers never ever have working tail lights
