I'd very much like every truck out there to have the headlights pointed away from my eyes and be less bright thanks.
I'm very close to putting a mirror over my rearview window to shine the light back at them.
In older cars, where you could manually flip the rear view mirror to dim it, my dad would flip it back and forth trying to flash the person behind him so they’d get the hint about their high beams. Not sure it ever worked…
Presumably the mirror was angled toward his eyes so he was just flashing himself
