I can't even turn the lights off in my car at night if I wanted to - not sure how these people are able to drive without them coming on automatically.

My guess is because modern cars have lighted dashboards. For us old-timers, a lighted dashboard meant the headlights are on. Couple that with daytime running lamps and people think their headlights are on.
I can let that go, but what really bugs me is when I flash my lights at those drivers and they don't react. They don't even seem to be aware that I flashed my lights at them. If someone flashes their lights at me, I assume I've done something wrong that I need to fix or that Sedan_Clan is around the corner watching for stop sign violations.
