Description of the problem	For the second time, i was pulled over by the state police because my tail lights were not on at night. In both cases, it is likely that when i got out of my jeep my knee brushed the dial that controls the headlights and moved it from "a" to "o" (auto to off). Both times it was after dark and because of the daytime running lights, it was not immediately clear to me that the headlights (and taillights) were not on. In both cases, the trooper let me off, but this seems like a design flaw that could create a major problem if a car were following me and did not see me.
