Are other drivers more light sensitive or are they just getting more angry?
My late night drives home from work have been getting frustrating, more and more people seem to be flashing their headlights, flipping me off and sometimes playing games. It's robbing me of my serenity lately, and I don't like it.
It seems most didn't read how to look at (really away from) oncoming headlights in their driver's education course, assuming drivers ed still being offered or a thing.
Before anyone jumps on my back, all of my vehicles have factory headlights, bought new, and knock on wood, no accidents. Our Mini Cooper has HID lights that even self calibrate when it starts, my 2500 is basic halogen and 3500 has the LEDs. I completely get the HID's on the Mini, they're bight, but they're also not a new thing, and last night, even my stock/empty 2500 got flashed a couple of times! Tonight I am measuring and adjusting (if needed) the Mini's headlights, maybe they're high.
Also, whenever I hook up to my goose neck people flash, but hell, we're in North Texas where every other truck has a goose neck attached, one would think they'd know deal when one is heavy. Every time I see pick up truck headlights that look bright it's hauling something. Surely other drivers are aware as well?
Wondering if others have noticed this in their travels as well, or are ALL three of my vehicles not adjusted correctly? And on a side note, it's particularly funny when someone with HID/LED headlights flash me, anyway I digress, thanks for reading my rant.
