Very nearly put the search and rescue Landy through a hedge a few years back on a shout due to a dog Walker with what can only be described as a small sun strapped to his head on strobe mode. I came round the bend and he looked up straight at me, I couldn’t see a thingWhatever you get make sure it doesn't blind all the oncoming traffic as a driver that suddenly can't see is as likely to run him over as having no light at all.
I had to stop and have a word with one of the numpties in my lane a few weeks ago as he completely blinded me on a curve and I couldn't tell which way to go!
Not in a good way. Theres a reason car lights dont flash. I am a cyclist myself,but any that point a bright flashing light at me will get a blast of the high beam or worse.And the flashing lights scream cyclist!
