I no longer care. I'm sick of being blinded by LED headlights.

also, you often can't even tell what it is that's blinding you, so it could be a Corolla as easily as a truck

I still have fond memories of driving at night before all these bright as fuck led headlights.

I learned to drive on a 1985 jeep, and it practically had glow worms in jam jars for headlights and I never had an issue, but for some fucking reason every single car needs to be as bright as a collapsed sun.

Not to mention the people with horribly aimed headlights.

yeah, the aiming makes it worse for sure. like the lights just shouldn't be that bright to begin with, because blinding people as they crest a hill is stupid as fuck, but there's absolutely no call to be blinding people on flat level ground.

unfortunately people often claim that they're fine because they're aligned properly on flat level ground, and ignore the fact that they do not drive exclusively on flat level ground free of bumps and inclines and differences in elevation with those around them
