We don't  actually need that much light to be able to see at night. What we 
need is  for that ambient level of light not to change much, so that our eyes 
don't  need to keep adapting. So the less bright everyone's lights (and the  
background lighting) are, the better it is for all of us. It would help if  
we all banned BMWs, Mercedeses and Audis, for a start - every time one  comes 
towards me I am totally dazzled, whatever I am  driving.

What gets my goat is the State Highway Dept. asking everyone to keep  their 
headlights on during the day.
I don't need the blinding effect; in fact, I can (and I wish everybody  else 
in my traffic would) hold off on turning on the headlights until  it's really 
dim--it's surprising how well one can see without headlights until  the sun is 
fully down.
