zchybrid Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Well winter is nearly here, the clocks have gone back and its now dark before i finish work.... You know what this means.... I get blinded for a few seconds while every other wally who comes towards me cant manage to turn their full beam down until they have actualy got me fully in sight of them! How comes i can see their head lights before i come around a corner or over the brow of a hill and turn my lights back to dip beam before they come into my vision, yet they blow my tired eyeballs from their sockets...... I hate some drivers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSE Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I know exactly what you mean and I hate it. The Monaro has this rear view mirror with this anti-dazzle feature on it. I didnt really know whether or notit was working until somebody came up behind me with lights blazing. It certainly works, not sure how, but with full beam on the lights look normal. Still very bright in wing mirros though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnss8 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 This really pi$$es me off as i live out in the country and go down pitch black lanes so you end up driving up hedges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSE Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I hate it more in wet weather, if a car approaches in the other direction with his beamers on, it more or less forces you to stop. Lots of country roads here as well and its murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danksy Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 fecking eedjits people who keep their beam on I normally put mine on full beam (if theres no one following them) a fraction early so they get the message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyds Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 One piece of advice... Bolt a pair of 1,000,000 watt spotlights to the front of your car and simply melt them. Cars just coming over the brow of a hill also get on my nerves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy32 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I remember a few years ago I was travelling back too our yard at about 2.30am after finishing some grass cutting on the M23. I was in my tractor coming back along the A272 and there were'nt many cars about but nearly all of them were blinding me before they dipped there lights. I remember thinking "thats it the next fecker is getting the full pelt of my work lights", and that is very bright, sure enough the next car got it and it was a copper, needless to say I got pulled!

shark_90 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I hate it too, and I generally to the same as danksy! What I find JUST as annoying are all the ****ers driving around with their fogs on. They get a double flash of my fogs, and if they don't get the message then, I give them everything I've got. Twats, they really are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdiesel Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 The desire to 'full beam' back is really strong, but then you end up with two blinded people driving towards each other. Prehaps not the safest situation to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
