Better 'headlight police' than a 'headlight ar$hole' dazzling other road users.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

I f**king hate the thingys who have standard headlights and HIDs. The term "I'm alright jack" comes to mind. They might be able to see better but the people driving towards them cant see a fecking thing.

Dont really get them down my neck of the woods, how ever the few I have seen dont seem know where near as bad as people make them out to be, maybe its just me!? (and before anyone thinks I am one of these people that runs HID is standard headlights IM NOT)

How ever, There are a few cars brand new from the factory which are fitted with BLINDING headlights ie the insignia etc

Even 6000k is too bright I have found out. Could you explain how these anti glare bulbs work?  :huh:

since when has eu law superseded uk law? for a start there is no eu law, they have regulations, they have no real power to say any country has to obey them! otherwise the £ would have went years ago

hids without at least projectors is a horrible idea, so glad its gonna be in the mot now, means police can actually do something about them now. was an alfa in south shields that used to blind me everytime, could see him coming from miles away, then could still see the lights once hed past as it was burned into my retinas!!!

Is Google broken for you?

It is the case, you're speaking nonsense.  Please stop.
