Headlights

Every notice that these guys that put the big lift kits on their 4x4s forget to adjust their headlights? And these new lights blind you even on dim.

To me the little cars and regular sized trucks are worse. They have after market driving lights mounted, some one nudges one with their knee and now it is aimed up at your eyes.

I think the new LED lights on cars are terrible and should be banned. Their low beam is as bright or brighter than the high beams on older cars. Then there are more and more rude drivers that won't turn off their high beams completely blinding you.

I think it's more about "Hey, look at my big truck."

Yea that annoys the heck out of me, especially when they decide to follow you too close. I slow down, turn my brights on and let them pass, then follow them. Not the right thing to do but at 5:30 am it make me feel a little better.

with my old eyes , for some reason i seen more detail at night with the old sealed beams that either these new white or blue lites, for tailgaters with bright lites i have found a inadvertent solution, all my farm flatbeds have a set of driving lites mounted backwards on their headache racks for nighttime working and backing,idiots that run up within 4 feet of our trucks with their brights on at night get the point pretty quick

One of the things I really like about my Tundra is the trailer tow package which includes a knob on the dash to reaim the headlights. So, when the hitch has a lot of tongue weight, or maybe the bed is just loaded up, I can dial the lights down! Really good idea.

Sometimes I forget, but a 'friendly' oncoming driver will flash his lights to remind me to lower them.

My (usually very 'stayed' and proper)son used to say those guys had those tall 'jacked up' trucked 'trucks' make up/compensate for their "shortcomings".LOL

Don't worry pretty soon they will ban driven cars and trucks and everyone will be asleep in the back and you won't need lights.

Your not alone I don't like the new head lights and the guy that has a head light pointed in the on comeing traffic.

I was taught low beams should shine slightly down and to the left of center, it seems like new cars just shine too far ahead on low beams.

That's why I like the remote control mirrors on my vehicle. I readjust the mirror so it reflects the bright lights right back at them Course I don't go out at night much anymore.

While on the subject of headlights. It amazes me how many people drive with their headlights off at dawn, dusk, fog, in the snow and raining.
I guess they don't understand that headlights aren't just so you can see, but more important, so others can see you.

Please drive with your headlights on..

Yup. My wife calls them "Compensation Machines".
