Limit how strong car headlights can be
Make a law limiting car headlight light power by limiting car manufacturers from making their headlights too bright (using a hard limit in lumens)
The trend of making car headlights on new cars brighter are causing issues: they are too bright and even without switching on beaming headlights, can easily dazzle drivers, especially at night.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There is already international legislation that proscribes the permitted bulbs that can be used in car headlights. This is set out in UN regulations: unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/trans/main/wp29/wp29regs/R037r7e.pdf
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to review existing rules regarding car headlights, to see if these need to be updated, if that's something you'd like to happen.
