All LED car tail-lights flicker out of the corner of your eye, and
half
of them when you're looking straight at them. Hard to believe in
the 21st century we get such ****ty lights (and on decent cars).


Are you sure it's not just you.


It is, I don't get that effect at all.


Then your eyes or brain are too slow. Remember the 60Hz CRT monitors,
could you see those flicker?


It could also be in your imagination.,


Nope, trivial to prove that it isn't with a proper double blind test.

or teh flickering of yuor eyes.


Nope, trivial to prove that it isn't that either.

Do you also see yoursefl blink.


You do if you watch for it.

Do you really see that your vision gets shutoff when you blink.
Is yuor brain too slow to see yuor own eyelids shut.


Nope.

A blink of an eye is about 300ms 1/3 second so hwo the **** to yuo
know whats going on when yuor eyes are closed for 1/3 second
Awnswer is you don;t your brain makes it up.


BULL****.
