I put a pair of 100W Dick Cepek off-road pencil beams (you get a mile or so of reach on the beach, like daylight) on my old Blazer, had them aimed right into the windshield of that oncoming BMW that always has its aux driving lights on, and aimed right at my eyes. Blink the brights a few times, BMW driver blinks his to show s/he does not have the high-beams on, then hit the eye-burners (hey look at my way cool aux driving lights, why, they're just like yours, sorta!). Of course the geniuses driving the BMWs never understand, but there is some other factor at work there I think. The same behavior has spread to most of the drivers of lux-cars that have the aux lights, and of course big-ass SUVs that have them higher off the road but still aimed right in your eyes for some reason. I guess they think it looks cool or something to drive around the wilds of street-lighted urbia with their extra lights on.
I have pointed out to various dimwits occasionally that their lights are inappropriate and offensive when pointed at another driver, I usually get told to FO or something similar by the good citizens. I have quit doing that as I do not want to get shot by someone who feels his manhood has been impugned, though most BMW drivers probably would not be packing anything but a cell phone. --R LarryT wrote: > Life's just no fun. ;-) > > Personally, I always wanted a pair of the most powerful Cibie's driving > lights possible mounted so when ever someone was driving 55 in the passing > lane - I could turn on those Big Momma driving lights and melts the rear end > of their car until it exploded in flame.
