However, one of the settings will prevent the night mode from activating. I think if you have traffic notifications turned on the night mode will not activate (this is one of the BMW things that makes no sense to me).

I live in a very rural area where traffic is not an issue so I leave this feature off. If I go into metro areas, where I might be concerned about traffic, I turn it back on. So I have button #1 programmed to toggle day/night. My Infiniti did this automatically with the automatic headlight sensor. If I were living in a urban area and wanted both night mode and traffic mode, I would use two "radio" buttons - one for toggling day/night and another for toggling traffic on/off (to permit the night mode to activate). Why BMW doesn't have automatic day/night mode activation with the headlight sensor is another BMW nonsensical decision (IMHO).
