Should folks not be allowed to use halogen and HID lights
because they're brighter??

Halogen headlights usta be illegal in CA. Lotta bikers got busted cuz
the CHP knew chopper riders invariably customized their bikes to
include illegal halogen headlights for better see-ability.

So, I was shocked when I got a new job in Silly-Con Valley (long time
ago) that required me to commute at O-dark-thirty. Seems half the
cars on the road had these newer, brighter, headlights. So bright,
they gave me a headache. I usta let my hatchback rear window remain
dirty jes to diminish the brightness of following vehicles.

So, upside, can see better. Downside, $300 sunglasses!
