    It’s more just making fun of a thing where parents tell their kids they can’t keep the lights on in the car because it’s illegal. Not sure how widespread it is, but my parents always told us that as a reason (distracted driving is illegal in many places, but interior lights is not). It’s one of those go-to excuses that a parent just throws out when they don’t want to deal with something (interior lights does make it harder to see).
