LED headlights are not really a problem. The problem is how tall the modern cars are and how high are the headlights mounted.

- al_borland 11mo agoIt’s also an issue with people buying LED bulbs and putting them in cars not designed for them. That is what leads to the blinding lights.
- plqbfbv 11mo agoIt's not just that. LED headlights are much more focused beams than the old bulb lamps. As a guy with moderate myopia, even low beams can be extremely annoying up to the point of physically hurting my eyes if there are no street lights to reduce the contrast. I like that I can see better and further, but at the same time if I put my car's low beams just slightly higher so they project more than ~30m away, I get flashed from cars passing in the opposite direction, no high beams required. Matrix/Adaptive headlights should be mandatory with LED headlights to be honest.
