Why keep upper lights on while driving? I have been living in the US and have been to numerous road trips there but recently had been on a pretty long road trip in India and one annoying thing which I noticed was people continuously had their upper light on.

How would it be if girls asked us for consent for intimacy? So I don't want anyone to make a line set in stone with what I am saying but it is interesting idea to me that what happens if girls ask for consent.
