Maybe some people have more sensitive eyes? Don't bother me much either. Nothing like badly set headlights. Of which there seem to be a lot around. Apart from motorbikes who seem to insist on using main beam in town - or setting the dip so it dazzles. -- *Marathon runners with bad shoes suffer the agony of de feet* Dave Plowman dave(a)davesound.co.uk London SW 12

It does get me noticed as I ride then I have to say it does it's job. I do profess to like doing it because of the inconvenience to other road users who do see me normally. I would like to have a light fitting that was bright but not dazzling but not seen anything on the market. Please remember it just takes some blind fool to pull out at the last moment through not seeing me and my life changes. |
