I know I’m not the only one who feels like I’m getting visually assaulted everytime I drive at night. It was bad 10 years ago but now, it seems like headlight manufacturers have a deal with insurance companies and optometrists to make the lights as bright as possible. Is this ever going to stop or is there some kind of race in the headlight industry to see who can reproduce the power of the sun first?

    Counterpoint: I drive a 98 chevy and I can see fine at night because my eyes are good unless someone is in the oncoming lane and their headlight spill washes out my vision. People that can’t see adequately with old-style headlights simply should be legally restricted from night driving. (The same way vision-impaired people are restricted from all driving)
