As I have already said DRLs are to help pedestrians, they can see an approaching vehicle far better if it has lights on. Trials have shown that DRLs tend to improve the judgement of the speed of an approaching vehicle.
Motorists have to undergo a period of instruction and tests to be able to drive. They must also be medically fit and have a minimum quality of vision, you should be able to see the car in front even without lights in daylight. What "moron" is going to drive into the back of a vehicle in broad daylight even if it has no lights on? Oh!... I forgot, 9 times out of 10 the one not paying attention and probably driving too close.
On the other hand the average pedestrian has no test to pass, no minimum physical ability to meet or a r**dy great steel box around him/her for protection. They are not at risk from cars when they are travelling away from them.
