    Anyone else have this problem...running country roads, lit up like a Christmas tree...still most cars will blind you as they pass, not all but most.
    Please dip your headlights:)
    with winter on the doorstep..There just isnt enough hours in the day anymore.

    I assure you the problem is a lot worse when you're cycling.
    Not looking forward to cycling home from work in the winter.

    I'd prefer if they slowed down to get past you instead, but yes it is a nuisance to be temporarily blinded by inconsiderate dopes

    Not sticking up for people driving on full beam etc but the number of times I have met people out running late at night wearing dark clothing and not a screed of hi visibility wear is unreal ,keep off the road if your not fully equipped in safety wear if not use a purpose built track for your exsertions:p

    A lot of people dont have access to "purpose" built tracks, finish working late in the evening and can only get out after the best light of the day is gone..regards high vis wear agree 100%
