I actually thought my vision was starting to go while driving at night so it’s nice to hear this is an actual thing.
The other 4 are in F-350s leaning back in the „Carolina Squat“ and can’t see the road ahead of them anyway.
6 in 10 drivers ARE the headlight glare problem.
My astigmatism makes driving at night legit scary.
Who is this 40% who don’t say it’s a problem?
The other 4 are probably the muppets with the headlights that are blinding everyone else.

The remaining 4 are either truck drivers or have never driven past cars with ultra-bright LED lights.
Car manufacturers are deliberately putting dark spots at the points where regulators measure headlight brightness. This is basically dieselgate, but with headlights.

Even as a pedestrian it’s a huge problem.
The other four are in charge of designing lights for cars unfortunately
I almost got into a fight a couple of months ago because the headlights on my wife’s car are too goddamn bright. The guy in front of us thought I was messing with him.
Yet *nothing* will happen unfortunately.
My retinas are fugged up. Mostly, I am super, super light-sensitive. And at the same time, my night vision isn’t hot.
I live in Upstate NY
life is misery for most of the year
3 of the 6 currently have problem headlights
I honestly can’t tell if People (or their cars if automatic) just leave their high beams on or not.
The government of Canada is surveying people for their thoughts on the bad headlight glare.
Yeah, the glare stinks!! It’s a road hazard!
I had eye surgery and my eyes are a lot more sensitive than normal. This shit fucking sucks!
Headlights? Shoooooot, we have imbecils driving around here with LED light bars on.
My buddy replaced his headlights and was wondering why he got flashed all the time.
Found out they were pointed straight up into people’s eyes. I adjusted them for him with a screwdriver and now it’s fine. They are still white lights just pointed correctly.
I’d bet most people’s issues are incorrectly adjusted headlights either from the factory or after a replacement.
NGL it’s so bad I can’t tell who has high beams on or not.
Effs up sedan/halogen drivers so bad we almost need to turn our high beams on to see afterwards..
Also, love the automatic brights feature on newer cars where they don’t shut off until after they blind people. Until they improve this tech, please disable and operate them manually.
Driving in my town at night can be a nightmare. Particularly in the dimly lit neighborhood roads vs the better lit business zones.
Driving on a neighborhood road, blinded by an oncoming car makes me slow down till they’ve passed. I can’t see the road behind them and I’m worried there might be pedestrians in the road. So I slow down till I can see the road again.
If my current career blows up, I’m becoming a police officer and will exclusively go around ticketing improper headlight alignment
The he other 4/10 drove big-ass, earth-raping trucks.
I report yt ads for super bright headlights as a dangerous act. I’m doing my part.
If you’re Canadian, you have until April 20, 2026, to let the government know how you feel about headlight glare: [Transport Canada](https://tc.canada.ca/en/corporate-services/consultations/canadian-experience-vehicle-headlights-glare-night).
I hate this… and having astigmatism makes it worse
There’s a special place in hell for people who use those cheap ass Amazon basics LED bulbs.
It’s horrible on bike paths too.
my new car has led headlights and people flash their brights at me thinking i have my brights on. until i blind them even more
I keep saying it, the issue is color temp of modern lamps. Go back to the more yellow spectrum lights and we don’t have the same issue.
And you can see it on the road.
Just as a fact, it was the reason France was using yellow headlights back in the day. Study showed illumination was the same but with reduced glare.
Especially when those assholes get aftermarket headlights with the power of a thousand suns.
I have a what used to be seen as a full size sedan. I get blinded by oncoming trucks and suvs. But not just that, also the ones behind me — the lights are right in my rear view and side view mirrors. It’s infuriating and only getting worse.
People are stupid assholes in general. Have cops start pulling people over and ticketing them for blinding oncoming traffic.
I’ve wondered why they don’t have a dimmer switch. These lights make driving at night more difficult for me, and even worse when it is raining.
I’m older now and yah, eyesight is diminished, I just picked up a pair of yellow driving lens over glasses. What a difference, with the LEDs and no vehicle inspection in Florida, its driving while blind with the help of jack black.
Another example of the selfish “fuck you got mine” culture in this country
Shit I don’t even drive and have this issue while walking. Frustrating to say the least.
If you drive a Jeep and you changed to LED headlights.. F*** you. That is all.
