You have a short in the wiring by the light. With the fuse out, there is not current to the light, so there is no danger in driving the vehicle. Have the wiring checked, the problem is near where you saw the smoke!

Go with fires answer.You have a hot wire going to ground in that circuit. Follow the smoke.You will see the wire that's causing the problem.It might have rubbed through from vibration and it touching bare metal somewhere. If you leave the fuse out your ok to drive it. Should not be dangerous at all

Yes, without a fuse thhere is no elec. connection, therefore it cannot short out.
