I’m not talking those obnoxiously bright LEDs, I’m talking straight up high beams. It’s becoming more and more common. Why?

Because of auto high beams.

Don’t know, but I flash my high beams back at every damn one of them.

Low beams burnt out. Too expensive to replace. Have to buy black n milds and Popeyes instead

Well true. But, call me crazy, I’d prefer that the vehicle hurling straight at me going 60+ MPH isn’t being operated by someone who is blinded.

It's getting worse every year, especially on the interstate. It annoys me to the brink of insanity.

They don’t realize it or they don’t adjust it after modifying their truck.

Same here. I just flash right back at them. And mine are just stock Ford F-150 headlights.
