Default London Buses - they got a special on light bulbs or something?

Hello

Is it some undeniably daft new regulation or is there some good reason why
an awful lot of Central London buses are now going around with their
headlights seemingly permanently (and IMHO pointlessly) switched on?

Some of the lights are so bright that they are dazzling even in daylight!


Don't know if this is the real reason for buses doing so, but I use
headlights when travelling down bus lanes in my taxi. This is because
there are so many other drivers who think that they can use the bus lane
with impunity and also on the grounds of safety - at least there is a
better chance that they will see me
