Drivers going the opposite way will flash their high beams at me when I’m riding my bicycle at night (with a pretty powerful light btw, so my visibility isn’t a problem). Either way, what the fuck do they think they’re accomplishing besides blinding me?
Turn ur goddamn HIGH BEAMS OFF.

I guess it depends on how powerful you mean? If it’s a bright enough light for you to see the road but isn’t made to be a headlight, it might not have the shielding that headlights do, and they may be flashing you to say that you’re blinding *them*.

You should check the angle that the light on your bike is at, it may be too high and blinding oncoming drivers

AITA for successfully landing a fat glob of mucusy spit on their windshields, as retaliation for being flashed?
