Reply to comment by b4ngl4d3sh in N.J.’s road safety messages were too sassy for the feds by heptapod

To some people everything is a roadside distraction. At least the signs provide some focus for the distraction. Would rather DOT focus on taming those incredibly bright headlights we're all being subjected to. Nearly everyone I've spoken to thinks they can't drive at night now because they're being blinded, including younger people.

Now there's something we can FULLY agree on. Those lights are the worst. Non stop high beams.

As far as the signs go, I'll be honest, I'm pretty indifferent to them! I was bored at work, lol.

I was just joking, too. But yeah, those high beams are ridiculous, esp on two lane roads. Blinding. Read that in Europe laws mandate that when these cars sense another vehicle approaching they must dim to a certain level or mechanically lower the focus of the beam, but the USDOT will not allow this software or the mechanical modifications. There was a discussion on Reddit about this roughly 6 weeks ago.
