When I feel that the oncoming vehicle's lights are too bright, they get my high beams, which stay on them, despite their frantic high beam flashing. If more people did this, perhaps these people would switch back to their OEM lights.

EDIT: Not talking about the lights described in the article, but people who replace their cars' original lights with brighter ones.

Sounds like you're really endangering other people's lives in response to an annoyance.


Not in response to an "annoyance". I feel that they are selfishly endangering me and the other drivers on the road.


Even if that's the case, the correct response is not to endanger them right back. That's like people who tailgate because they think the person in front of them is going too slow, or the ones who slow down because they think the person behind them is going too fast. Two wrongs don't make a right; they just make things twice as bad, or worse.


Oh so you decided to help them? How nice.


These lights FTA are OEM, though a lot of tuner cars and lifted trucks aren't I suppose.


You're either very principled in that you're willing to get seriously injured over a minor cause, or you haven't really thought this through methinks...
