Time to ban "brights feature" on headlights?
Nobody but the deadly criminal speeders who drive over 70 at night need
them and they obviously don't count. Many people use their brights at night but then forget about them and blind oncoming traffic and cause crashes. |

I drive on many unlit local roads and need the high-beams to see the road ahead and am not a deadly criminal speeder. But those who don't turn off the high-beams when they approach a car (in either direction) are rude. The ones approaching you can be alerted by flashing your lights, but the ones in back of you are more difficult since they blind you for a longer period of time and there's no obvious way to tell them to lower their lights.

It ought to be legal to smash out the brights of the car behind you at a stop light with a Mag-Lite or whatever suitable instrument you carry under your seat. nate (who just had one of these pricks behind him this morning...) |

S&DDAM probably gets its legal ideas from TV, as in "Judge Judy." The "Aunt Judy" parody of the show is a nice fit. |

How about we just disconnect yours since you seem so disconnected from reality.

It is amusing that the resident troll is against high-beams. In chicago, the cheap ass beater driving types think the high-beams are the spare bulbs for the headlamps. Some switch to highbeams once the first lowbeam burns out. Some wait until both do. In either case they won't replace their headlamp bulbs until all 4 are burned out. |
