The other thing those people fail to mention is that loud noises are disorienting, and the one thing you want when you sandwich yourself between a couple of 2 tons pieces of metal moving at 110 km/h is to disorient everybody and make them unable to move in straight lines.

The same applies to very bright lights.

shhh don't tell the headlight lobby that these new blinding LED headlights are actually less safe because they blind oncoming drivers coming at you at 100km/h four feet away on a narrow turning road

The yellow headlights are excellent for not blinding everyone infront of you, unfortunately I think they're illegal in most countries.

better than white, but I've seen bright enough yellow LEDs to still be blinding lol

we need better regulation and enforcement
