Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Headlights on many vehicles are mounted at a level equal to the eye level of a person driving a standard passenger vehicle, thereby causing substantial glare, reducing ability of the passenger vehicle driver to see beyond the oncoming vehicle with the high-mounted headlights. The glare is equally distracting when the vehicle with the high-mounted lights is at the rear of a standard passenger vehicle. …”
