[AFMUG] OT: Emergency Vehicle LEDs

[Nate Burke]

Am I the only one who thinks that the new LED's that all the emergency 
vehicles have now are dangerous?  I was about 1/2 mile behind an 
ambulance and the flashing LED's were so bright in front of me that I 
could barely make out the traffic light I was stopped at.  And why does 
the ambulance need to have approximately 200,000 LED Fixtures on it?  I 
get it, I see you, I can't not see you, now I can't see anything else.  
They saw an open piece of sheet metal and were like, 'We could put 
another strobe there'  It's even worse when there are multiple vehicles 
together at an accident scene.  I understand having them bright during 
the day, but they are just blinding at night.  It's like they need to 
have a day/night mode. Who do I write a strongly worded letter to 
expressing my displeasure?
