CM it was raining the other day and a load of idiots had them on!!!.
Maybe we should write on the back of wagons! The switch that puts fogs on also puts them off!!!, Mind you the frilly curtain and spotlighht trucker brigade drive with them on all the time too.
use any lights in a way which would dazzle or cause discomfort to other road users
use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced. You MUST switch them off when visibility improves to avoid dazzling other road users.

But how many people these days actually bother to read it??
When asking one of my trainees about the Highway Code his answer was
"Oh, that;s that book they make you read before you geet your car licence isnt it?!

I always keep an up todate copy in my cab. Handy for when someone moans at you for unloading on double yellows etc.
I even saw one with just his sidelights and fogs on
I think if you look in the highway code you can just use side lights if you’re in a lit street with a 30mph limit. All i ever use side lights for are parking lights though, if it’s at the point where you need lights on for driving i just go straight to dipped.
Fogs on in more than 100m visibility isnt legit though.
