What's up with the blinding white headlights?

40. These lights are dangerous.

If you don't have to, don't drive at night. It's hard this time of year due to getting dark earlier. Regardless, safety first.

I notice in my more rural area, pick-ups having them probably along the line of 3:1, over passenger cars, and due to them being a taller rig these blinding lights hit passenger car drivers straight in the eyes. On a 2 lane rural road traveling 50 to 60mph, 10 seconds of not being able to see shit. It's dangerous.

In addition this time of year, more often, roads are slick. Possibly even snowy or ICY. I read, in a magazine at a tire shop, that there are 50 percent more accidents at night, with more injuries and death (to early for that word) than during daylight.

Unfortunately, "hostility lights" sounds about right (in my area anyway)

This is the holiday season but even if not, please be safe. Selfishly, I want to continue having discussions with my DU friends
