The use of a single DS rear fog light by manufacturers is by design; to reduce likelihood of other traffic assuming you have the brake lights on; important in particular when leaving a heavy fog/torrential rain, brushfire smoke situation. Twin rear fog install is ‘okay’ for large trucks, trailers etc. it’s the Euro makes that utilise a single DS rear fog, and that market is the expert region for the function.
