These lights were originally used (and are still used this way, in some parts of the world) to increase your car's visibility when parked in a poorly-lit and/or narrow road. In fact, at one time they were run off a seperate electrical system so that you could leave them on for hours, but still start your car again.
I just deleted a long post about this because I can sum it up in one sentence -- parking lights are for parking, not for driving in rain/sleet/low-light, so if your pre-Neanderthal, single-celled brain can possibly compute that, please turn that switch an extra half-inch and use your headlights from now on. Thankyou.
