I'm constantly amazed at the number of people who drive at dusk with
parking lights on.

In Colorado, it is strictly illegal to drive (i.e., be moving) with only
your parking lights on.  Either you're sitting still and you have parking
lights on, or you're moving and you need headlights.  I can't figure out
where people get the idea that it's OK to be going down the road at 40 MPH
with PARKING lights--what the hell does the name mean, anyway.

Are there states in which it is allowed to drive with parking lights, that
would have given these folks the idea that it's OK?
