| EXTERIOR LIGHTING - HEADLIGHTS | |||
| The new blue-white light headlights on the audi and other luxury and imported cars is blinding when approaching from the other direction, significantly reducing the ability to see and posing a safety hazard. the effect seems even worse than a car approaching with its high beams on. the effect is so bad that it prevents you from seeing the road and other things around. they should be banned. | |||
