     @Zergling_man @yassie_j @SuperDicq At night, turning on high beams when there are other cars makes it harder for other drivers to see, but not normal headlights.
     
     Other than on newer proprietary cars, normal headlights aren't bright enough to cause an issue.
     
     If you don't have lights on, nobody will see you coming at T-intersections.

     @SuperDicq @yassie_j I continue to maintain that on most nights, turning on lights makes it harder for other drivers to see anything but you.

     They are though. I've maintained this since long before the deadly LED lights became standard.

     @Zergling_man @yassie_j @SuperDicq Here we have Mr blind attack.
     
     The whole idea of the dark is that there's no light, so you can't see shit.
     
     Even if you can see fine, someone going behind you without lights might not see you, as no back lights and rear end you.
     
     I remember hearing about an incredible collision rate in a certain country were it is not seen as "manly" to put the lights on.

     @Suiseiseki @SuperDicq @yassie_j ?
     More like, because I don't suck at seeing in the dark?
