Transport Canada wants your opinion on headlight glare - sh.itjust.works

The survey ended yesterday, but I’m glad transport Canada is looking into it.

I’d also like to see enforcement of proper headlight aiming. While lights really are too bright, it’s crazy that no one aims them properly.

An educational program about proper aiming, along with a check stop style safety sweep would help mitigate a lot of the issues.

Then again, we could just do the smart thing and mandate auto-leveling headlights, but that would be too simple.

I’m unclear how aiming solves the issue of a car with ungodly bright headlights going over a speed bump and blinding me.

Self-leveling headlights account for bumps, that’s literally their purpose.

For the record, I did say that lights are too bright. I don’t disagree at all. But there are two distinct issues at play here, and both need to be addressed.
