Blinding Vehicle Lights or "Lightmare"

Additional Information

Blinding vehicle lights are surely the most pressing road safety problem of modern times.

When life-safety is at risk why are car manufacturers trying to out-shine one another by fitting dazzling lights that cause temporary blindness under the guise of safety?

The law is clear: Highway Code rule 114 [Law RVLR reg 27] You MUST NOT use any lights in a way which would dazzle or cause discomfort to other road users, including pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders.

We petition Philip Hammond Minister of Transport to enforce the law and to eliminate daytime and night-time blinding vehicle lamps which affect a driver's vision to save the lives of pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and drivers.
