I've never had this problem

Didn't even know they existed. But I'm the opposite of a tailgater. Like people comment on how far I stay behind the driver in front of me

Even at a safe distance they are still a hazard, especially in situations where there is glare or driving into the sun. No different than a trailer without lights.

You posted this at 520pm during day light. Maybe you should pay more attention to a several thousand pound vehicle in front of you.

Can you really not tell if it's moving or stopped?

Stop texting and driving.

Taillight covers disappeared like 15 years ago. Now people just spray them with a can. Some people over do it. I have tinted license plate covers and it makes the car look better. Especially with tinted windows.

That shite, along with blue headlights, should be outlawed.

While we are at it, let's add those goofy cops that run those retarded casino lights that are so bright you actually can't the see the cop walking by the vehicle. Genius move.



ABSOLUTELY.

In the name of safety, let's blind people driving 55+

The little Covington cop that was waddling in front of his cruiser gave me a dirty look b/c I didn't see him b/c he was walking in front of the lights.

GMAB, I was doing like 25.

My bigger issue is the frickers that lift their trucks and don't adjust their headlights. A sincere frick you is in order.

Yeah, it's usually worse than brights. It especially irritates me when they're riding behind me and it's blinding me through my side mirrors. Most probably don't even realize what they're doing.

To a certain level I understand, but the license plate is such a minute part of the entire car when driving past, whats the point? Especially at night. The tint only can be seen during the day, otherwise, it just looks like shitty lights.
