DRL's have questionable benefits. In some cases such as rural 2 lane roads with high speed traffic and passing they can help oncoming drivers judge distances for safe passing. I personally don't care for them. But the H3's override switch solution is not bad. I rented a Camry once that had a separate position on the headlight switch for DRLs (complete manual control) and I preferred that.

If you have ever driven in Canada where all the new cars have DRLs, the traffic just becomes a sea of lights with no apparent benefit.

I don't think my CSAA insurance is giving me a break because of the DRLs on the H3.
