YOU NEED TO GET THOSE STUPID, DANGEROUS BRIGHT LIGHTS OFF THE ROAD. NOT ALL OF US HAVE PERFECT EYES. EVEN A SMALL CATARACT CAUSEES A LOSS OF SIGHT AND THESE LIGHTS MAKE IT MUCH WORSE. CHECK WITH AN OPHTHALMOLOGIST AND THEY WILL TELL YOU THE SAME THING. MY FRIEND HERE IN POORTLAND OREGON JUST GOT BACK FROM MINN. & WIS. AND HE WAS MAD AS HELL ABOUT THE BRIGHT LIGHTS HE HAD TO CONTEND WITH. SO WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE WORRIED ABOUT AFTER THE FACT ON THE ACCIDENTS. WHY DON'T YOU GET THESE UNSAFE THINGS OFF THE ROAD.

I AM A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER WITH OVER 1 MIL ACIDENT FREE MILES. EVERY YEAR THE HEADLIGHTS GET AIMED WORSE, THE TECHNOLOGY GETS BRIGHTER AND SOMETIMES WIDER DISPERSION (BLINDING) AND MORE DRIVERS DRIVE FULLTIME WITH FOG LIGHTS (NON-LENTICULAR LENS). MANUFACTURERS ARE ENCOURAGING THIS PROCESS WITH THE MANUFACTURE OF AUTOS WITH BIG FOG LIGHTS AND FAILING TO LABEL THEM WITH RESTRICTIVE USE WARNINGS. IN ADDITION, THEIR ADVERTISING ALWAYS SHOWS VEHICLES WITH THESE LIGHTS ON IN THEIR ADVERTISMENTS. BECAUSE OF THE SEVERITY I AM FORCED TO BLOCK OUT THEIR LIGHTS (AT THE RATE OF ABOUT ONE IN TWENTY-FIVE) WITH MY HAND, AND THEREFORE WILL HAVE NO OPPORTUNITY TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT IF THEY CROSS THE CENTER
