That would be in poor visibility - fog, snowing, dusty, etc, you want to be seen by vehicles behind. I think tail lights should go on automatically with DRLS.
With all the sensors we have these days it might be useful to have a sensor beside a tail light to warn when the lights are too dirty to be seen.
If the visibility is poor you should have your headlights on anyway. If you do the taillights are on.
I do agree with you about the taillights getting dirty though. People think I'm silly but, I have been known to clean the ones on other peoples vehicles when I see some that are to dirty. After all I might be helping out myself if I get behind them.
I live in a area where we have a lot of gravel roads and some people drive with so much dirt on their taillights that you can not see them at all. And, they don't seem to care !! Of course if you get rear ended it is always the other guys fault so I guess that it why they don't care. I'm not like that though but, I'm a minority around here.
