The purpose of DRLs is so that other road users can identify an active vehicle, which is the reason they illuminate when the parking brake is dis-engaged, vehicle is in gear and engine is running.

crm, this is all in response to the original post where the OP by "justracing" had a reasonable point that he wonders why other drivers rely on the meagre DRLs when in poor light, and they seem to be unaware that it is only the front lights that are on, and not the rear ones which could possibly be more important.
