I was just talking with a buddy of mine yesterday , and he had a lot to say about the blue lights coming at him .
He owns a cab company , and all his drivers have the same opinion .
They all hate those blue lights .
He runs halogens in all his cars .
Since I explained the physics of it , he now knows why he hates them .
Earlier in the day , he said he got out of his car at a stop light to tell the guy behind in the SUV , that he was being completely blinded by his headlights .
I just thought I'd throw this in , as Starter hadn't heard of anyone else hating them .
These particular professional drivers all say they hurt thier eyes .

It's worse for old folk , so it's really bad for those driving towards old folk , as they are the one's more likely to be less capable drivers to begin with .
Since there are usually more of them than deer on the road , I think it's maybe a little smarter , unless you live in the bush , to go halogen .
Just focus on 27. Full focus. No new manufacturers will come before then, and no new ones will come if clear new regs aren't settled for 2027 by the end of the year (latest first few months on 2025)....
