“This is a general complaint against all new blue and brighter headlights. They are a safety hazard. Especially in the new f 150 and similar big pick up trucks when one is behind you, they are higher than your car and it is like shining a spotlight in your car. Will temporality blind you. When one comes at you even with low beams they are a safety hazard. At first I thought it was a age issue. But found out last week at eye doctor people of all ages are complaining was almost in road rage over a large pickup truck that followed me on my bumper with those bright, bright blue headlights. . …”
