Reply to comment by Finnn_the_human in High beaming by ResponsibleExcuse727
My personal policy is if I can see someone else’s lights then I’m switching to low beams. I rarely find myself in a situation like you describe, a straight stretch of road with a couple hundred yards between the vehicle in front of me.

Proper education is needed on high beam usage. You simply cannot see far enough at ~60mph with low beams. It's physically impossible at those speeds to react quick enough.

Are you seriously suggesting the “proper” thing to do when driving 60 mph or above is have your lights set to a 5 second intervals rotation from high beam to low beam because the human body’s vision cannot react at that speed with low beams?

Wtf lmao no...I'm talking about the amount of cars you need to turn them off for. It was an exaggeration
Also, in talking about northern Vermont. It Syed to be way less populated. But just the other day, the roads were ice, and some idiot blew by me in the interstate to go flying off the road just ahead of me. Literally pulled over and had to tell them when they got out to not be driving that fast in those conditions...they were chill, just said "thank you brother" and left lol. But there's a ton of people up there now and they don't have any idea how to drive in Vermont...
