Can go to hell. Especially on a truck. I don’t particularly need your flashlight of the gods directly at retina-level being shined off the mirror. You’re not driving through the holler, Hoss. It’s a well lit Lexington road.
Super bright headlights

It’s a horrible scourge. I recently bought some glare reducing glasses for driving at night specifically because of these assholes. Also I look like Bono when I wear them - pretty rad.
Don’t look at the lights, dumb dumb…look at the right shoulder and maintain your lane. My Raptor throws off about 5000 lumens
I keep a flashlight that throws 100,000 lumens in my car and shine it at these assholes
This is a 50/50 shot that you're going to get a well lit Lex road at night. For a city our size, our lighting on the main roads is awful......and the lane striping is pathetic.
This is very true. Also the long stretches on New Circle with zero lighting. That was fun during our cold snap and snow in December.
There are parts of Alumni, Main St, New Circle that are awful at night....throw in a rainy night and you may as well drive in the middle.
I hear you. Nothing is more fun than blinding somebody that is driving.
If I may, please allow me to play devil’s advocate for a moment by taking a contrarian position with the profound statement that not many things on this Earth are greater than a pair of headlights set on high beam...

Several years ago, we got started on a trip before dawn. It was very foggy. Behind us about a quarter mile was a car whose headlights created two of those cartoon-style cones of light. It was great. Then, because of the fog, as traffic picked up, for the first time I noticed how many newer model cars have headlights that look like sinister arched eyebrows. I guess they got that from the movie "Cars" where the cars were supposed to have personalities. Two shots of a cartoon world in around 20 minutes. Made me feel like a "toon".
I’m sure your Prius has adequate lighting for a guy wearing socks and sandals. Freaking idiot
I walk a lot, so sometimes I walk at night on the sidewalk. Sometimes oncoming approaching cars will put their brights on as they pass me. It's annoying. I'm not in the road.
Try walking with pants on.
Sashay less. They're just innocently checking to see if you're selling a sweet piece of that ass.
I actually have this...so bite me.
And if you're that insecure over a jab at your Raptor, then my guess is you have truck nuts as well. Enjoy!
While I applaud the sentiment, that would definitely get you jail time if that caused an accident.*
* (manslaughter if the accident causes a death.
Not worth interacting with folks on the highway who have nothing to lose during these trying times. If you want to fight, arrange some ring time in the gym with local fighters. No one goes to jail this way. 😀
One blind person isn't enough while driving. Best to blind somebody else just to be safe.

Most of the crazy bright headlights are from people putting eBay leds in standard reflector housings. Around here, it’s part of a package: pickup with tow mirrors all the way out but it probably doesn’t have a hitch on it, window stickers about dodging or stroking, and wheel spacers on wheel spacers on wheel spacers.
