Turn ON your headlights, not just the DRLs (daytime running lamps). Many times DRLs don't turn on taillights.

This is what drives me bananas these days, actual headlights, not DRLs, should be on whenever it's dark, foggy, or raining.

I think they should be on at all times, personally. The studies back it up. It's just straight up safer. You're more likely to be noticed overall, and more likely to be noticed at a farther distance with headlights on, even on a sunny day.

In fairness, just use your headlights at all times.

You're significantly more likely to be noticed by someone at a greater distance if you have your headlights turned on, even in daylight.

Did not know that tail lights didn’t turn on with DRL’s. Thanks for the tip.
