Do you think they are too bright too?

In recent years, the automotive industry has seen a significant shift towards the use of LED headlights, touted for their energy efficiency and longevity. However, this transition has sparked a heated debate among drivers, with nearly 90% expressing concerns that these lights are dangerously bright. This article delves into the complexities of this issue, exploring whether these concerns are justified and what can be done to address them.

LED, or Light Emitting Diode, technology operates by passing an electrical current through a semiconductor, which then emits light. Unlike traditional halogen bulbs, LEDs produce light more efficiently and with less heat. This efficiency allows for brighter illumination, which is beneficial for visibility but can also be perceived as glaring by oncoming traffic.
