I am not a moron,I DONT NEED A BLINDING LIGHT in my face to see a car on the road IN BROAD DAY LIGHT!!

Whoevers idea it was to start having lights on cars DURING THE DAY was a complete moron!! (Its easier seeing the cars that DONT HAVE LIGHTS ON (Older cars) AS ITS NOT BLASTING YOU IN THE FACE!!!!!!!!)

This is just 1 thing i totally hate about the way things have gone in this world

Really? DRL's are BLASTING you in the face?


I think you need to get your eyes checked.

DUDE ... In every case, regardless of weather conditions, you will always see a car with lights on before those without.

If car lights during the day are blinding you, you need to see an eye doctor.

Is there ANYTHING you don't complain about?

Ummm, its a fact that you will see a car sooner with DRL's then without. There are some cars, not many that run the high beams at 50% power for DRL's, but those are not that bright. Maybe you are seeing some idiots just driving around with their high beams on during the day? Those are bright and annoying, but I have yet to see any OEM DRL that is that bright.

I doubt that.

DRL's don't blind you.

I am sure it's much easier to see cars when DRLs are ON. And they don't blind me at all.

In broad daylight, even full power high beams are not going to be blinding to other drivers.

DRL's are effective and do work.

What is the big deal anyway? They are just lights.

I wonder if the OP is blinded by these lights at night.

My problem with DRLs is people that forget to turn on the headlights at night. Then they are driving with no tail lights or marker lights all night.

The frequency of cars turning in front of motorcycles having bright halogen headlights on during the day says there are many morons who apparently whupped upside the head before they'll notice anything.
