Ban LED headlights on vehicles

Let’s get to the point, LED heaslights are annoying. For purposes other than transportation, they sound like a good idea. A brighter lit yard sounds like a pretty good deal. However, imagine being someone with visual disabilities like having a stigmatism. These LED headlights can blind you and cause you to have to look away from the road to avoid them. Sometimes you flash your high beams assuming their brights are on and they flash what seems like 10x more brightness. I personally have had many headaches brought on from these lights as well as an accidental road kill since I couldn’t see the road. This has made it impossible for me to drive at night. I am terrified the next time I’m faced with LED headlights I could accidently drive out of my lane or off the road completely. Let’s ban these lights on our roads completely since most areas are well lit within city limits.

Agree! Why can’t I vote on this? I am blinded every day. I have an astigmatism and it is very dangerous to drive at night with those blinding lights.
