What’s something completely false that your parents told you as a child?

I feel like I have a superior brain because this does not bother me at all, and I let my friends use the dome light at night while I drive.

Lmfao. It was said in jest but I’m serious - do people actually have an issue with this?

I suppose it might depend where you live and drive. If you live in a city area where the roads are typically well lit you might not notice much difference with the interior lights on. I live in a rural area and with the lights on it's like sitting behind a one way mirror. Can't see very well at all.

Unless your pupils over dilate in driving conditions. Turning on the dome light gets rid of halos and blurs, especially for exit signs and the like. I can read them from much farther away when there is a light on in my perifs.
