Daytime running lights are also mandatory in Canada. Mine has them and this creates a problem that I have never experienced with any other car. Because the lights are so bright, you get in the car at night and unconsciously think the lights are on when in fact it is only the daytime running lights. After five minutes of driving, you realize that you have been driving without your taillights. I think this is something that needs to be addressed but haven't heard anyone else complain about this problem.
