    They for sure came with only one operational rear fog over here...so no one confuses it as a turn sig , my 98 V70 was that way also.

    There is something called red burn I think where your eyes can be dazzled by red. If rear fogs are too bright your eyes cannot see brake lights. I can't see how its safer to have two rear fog lights. Anyway I absolutely hate rear fogs as the drivers in front of me never turn them off even when I'm close behind in traffic; fair enough if you are a lone car on a road at night. I always turn mine off in close traffic. My normal persuasion method works- four full beam HID's.
