  Crash bars
  
  (e.g. Bull bars, Kangaroo bars, etc.)
  
  Crash bars are designed to protect vehicles from head-on collisions with animals such as deers and they are mainly used in non-urbanised areas.
  
  In urbanised cities, crash bars are not allowed as they can aggravate injuries to pedestrians in the event of a collision.
  
  From LTA.
  
  Its supposed to protect the vehicles, retard.

  LTA clears the air on proper use of fog lights
  
  Friday • October 14, 2005
  
  IF drivers found the issue fuzzy before, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) is making it very clear now: It's not up to motorists to decide when to turn on their fog lights.
  
  In fact, since the beginning of this year, enforcement officers from the Registry of Vehicles have given verbal warnings to 120 motorists caught misusing their fog lights, which are the round or square lamps beneath the headlights. Last year, 200 drivers were warned.
  
  It is an offence for motorists to use their fog lights during clear weather conditions, said LTA, and those caught flouting the rule may be fined or jailed.
  
  The penalty for a first-time offender is a fine of $1,000 or a jail term of three months. Repeat offenders face double the penalty.
  
  Fog lights should be used only during adverse weather conditions that result in seriously-reduced visibility - during a heavy downpour or in thick haze for instance. They are not to be turned on during clear weather or night-time driving, said LTA.
  
  But motorists 938Live spoke to did not seem to be clear on this. Some bought cars that come with built-in fog lights while others installed the lamps on their own.
  
  Said one driver: "Using the fog lamp is an offence? Luckily, I have never used it! But if it's an offence, why install it in the first place? Â… I personally find fog lights from vehicles behind me very irritating."
  
  LTA says it will soon launch a public education campaign on the proper use of fog lights.
