Depends where you are. In many states DRL are not a requirement, and the ability to turn them off is built into the car or can be done via computer. In fact Toyota sometimes even posts DRL disabling instructions similar to this on TIS occasionally.

In some places disabling DRL's is not legal (like in Canada), but in many places it is perfectly fine.
