You can use them that way but they are not the intended use...

In essence they're so you can see the "edge of the roads" etc. in dense fog that hovers inches above the ground but I've been in those situations and they are of little help on vs. off. If it has to be in such a poor position, it may as well have been left off... passenger vehicles are slightly lower to the ground but still are susceptible to the same visibility and they go sans fogs plenty.
