Bright headlights dazzle wildlife. You do not need retina burning suns for headlamps to see animals on country roads.

I have always lived in the sticks and I hate these new headlights, you could always see fine with the old ones on a dark country lane.

Why does nobody think that if these lights are dazzling oncoming drivers, they are also dazzling these precious deer and pedestrians people keep saying they need to see so well.

For me the only silver lining to all these cloud outages is now we know that their published SLA times mean absolutely nothing. The number of 9's used to at least give an indication of intent of reliability, now they are twisted to wha
