I understand dealers can't sell new cars without DRL, but apparently owners can legally remove DRL.
But what about insurance implications ? Are auto insurance policies in Canada written so that if DRL is removed, the coverage is in jeopardy ? Makes sense that if DRL really reduces collisions, insurance companies would be reluctant to have their customers remove DRL. They might prohibit removal in cars covered by the policy - and might reduce the payout if a car in a crash has been discovered to have had its DRL removed.
