Nah, a class 4 laser in your pocket when you’re driving is a much more comfortable way and a direct message.
One of the many problems with these massive pickup trucks is that the headlights are so high up that the normal mode is effectively high-beams for anyone who isn’t also in a massive pickup truck
At least for SUVs some manufacturers finally realized that you don’t need to put the beams at the top of the front, you can have the DRLs there and have the beams at the bottom.

That’s the only redeeming quality of the Cybertruck. Its headlights are low in the bumper area.
Also it makes it easy to identify wannabe fascists.
This is a really good idea, and I’m glad some manufacturers are doing it. It’d be great if Ford could follow suit because the LED high beams in my car blind me every time a retro-reflector is nearby.

I often think about putting an unreasonably bright backwards facing lightbar on my sedan for just such occasions. Guess what bud, now we both can’t see.
The problem with how bright they are nowadays is that the downwards angle required to not blind people in regular driving conditions like small slopes is ridiculous and severely restricts how far you can see
they’re just too bright now
Sometimes I wonder if people know how lights work, and this goes both ways apparently. I have a couple Western Stars and a Peterbilt, and the low beams are aimed to have the same throw as a passenger vehicle that isn’t driven by an idiot that can’t aim lights. And those trucks sit much, much higher than a pickup.
It’s the brightness primarily, but yes made worse by the height
Higher is supposes to be fine if you re aim them for the standard cut off height/distance, but some of the factory ones (I think Nissan Rogue) are just absolutely blinding on normal factory height
Sick high-beams, bro. I’m going to slow down to 20 MPH so I can enjoy them longer.
That’s how I do.
If you blind me with super high beams, I need to slow down to be safe.
Yeah, driving slow is my solution for just a out anything that someone is doing stupidly on the road. Am I doing it to be petty? Sure. But is it also making the situation safer? Absolutely. So if I can justify my pettiness, you bet I’m going to do it.
I often think about if I could have any super power that isn’t OP, I’d pick the ability to snap my fingers and it’ll break those lights.
I want a car that has a rear windscreen that can turn into a mirror at the push of a button. Really useful for dealing with men with tiny dicks who drive giant trucks
Just use your rear view mirror. Point it directly backwards and there should still be enough light to annoy the hell out of them. I do it regularly on my morning commute and it is very effective.
American problems require American solutions
I wish the problem was only in 'murica, I have to deal with that constantly down in Bruhzil
A good focusing flashlight directed into the side mirror has been pretty helpful for getting these idiots to move on
I can’t even tell anymore.
