Default Lights on with wipers

Found this out today. When i turn my wipers on my Lights come on. I do not have the auto sensor wipers. but none the less pretty cool that the lights come on with the wipers.

I wish mine did that. Its law here in Ohio, if your wipers are on, your headlights must be too.

If you have headlights set to auto then the headlights will turn on when you turn the wipers on.

I think they will go back off after a certain time if you turn the wipers off.
