Since January 2002 it became compulsory for all new production bikes to have the lights constantly on, it is for your safety when filtering or when riding behind a vehicle and approach crossings.

Does it really matter that the mudguard sprays water in front of you when its pissing down with rain? You can't get wetter than wet.
