This has been shining in my eyes for the last 10 minutes whilst the bus driver takes a break.
We for real need to start legislating and enforcing brightness laws. These headlights are out of control. This thing is an abomination.
There is no rhyme or reason for anything beyond a reasonable street lamp and headlight. We kept asking could we, it’s time to ask should we? If nothing else I miss seeing stars at night
I haven’t had the displeasure yet.
I read
"Technical Education Opens Doors
OR
Your Child"
I though it was a threat to either go to college, or satan takes your child as a sacrifice for being ignorant.
Same goes for LED headlights. “Enjoy looking directly into lasers at night.”
At the very least, can they not be blue? It’s the worst color at night.
Red would be best–it fucks with your eyes the least–but there’s often legal limits on red lights (besides brake/turn signals) on non-emergency vehicles. Something in orange or yellow would be less harsh.
It’s not that they’re LEDs, it’s that they’re too bright.
Shit that’s bright af.
I’m sure I’ve seen them with the side panel showing the route the bus was travelling on.
No surprise that they eventually gave that up for ad money.
Next step will be to have that screen in colour and animated. And speakers.
You mean like these?
Wake up babe, new Ad Block just dropped.
Having been to Manchester very recently, I can think of bigger things to complain about.
(Not that I have room to talk, being in Blackburn.)
How is your move to the UK going? How do you find it compared to the US?
I love it so much more than the U.S., but I really need to find a job that pays enough to get my wife over here and get my daughter off a tourist visa. But it has only been two weeks.
Anyway, just the fact that, despite the British having a reputation for rudeness, people here are so nice and helpful compared to everyone’s “fuck you, I got my own shit going on” attitude in the U.S. We have had so many people, total strangers, help us in one way or another in the past two weeks.
Stage coach?
What made you unable to look in a different direction?
Sir, this is c/mildlyinfuriating, let me whinge in peace.
to whomever invented
LEDadvertisements.fuck being bombarded with literal propaganda all day.
Technical education opens doors, or your child.
Please don’t open my child.
I saw this, too, and I don’t even have a child.
Put the knife away Waltuh
(psssst ackshually it says “for”)
Why you gotta ruin it for us?
Alternate question: How powerful of a laser do you need to burn out the LEDs on those sort of displays?
At least three.
Maybe even four.
Looks like it’s supposed to say that, but currently doesn’t. Lol
I’m surprised that’s legal. You’d think it would distract other drivers
freedom of expression does also matter, how much more distracting is this compared to if it was made with retroreflectors? Could these lights be confused for hazards? Is this any different than having a glowing “taxi” sign on a taxi?
Love your username 👍
Thankyou so much :) <3
