Closed petition Review the impact of high intensity headlights on road safety
The adoption of high intensity headlights is causing major problems for some drivers. Many drivers now complain that they avoid night driving as the glare from the headlights severely affects their view of the route ahead. Also the glare in the rear view mirror can be more intense.
More details
The legal specifications for headlights were not designed for modern high intensity beams. The Government needs to review the impact of high intensity headlights on road safety, with a view to deciding if changes to these specifications are needed. The resulting glare is causing major issues for some drivers at night and especially when the road is wet.
