Recieved Interesting Email

Received this from HJ Motoring correspondent. Porsche are on my list as being vehicles with xenon lights that are dangerous and intimidating to other drivers.

Hi Ken,

I hadn't heard of you, but that's a brilliant idea (to use the wrong word).I'm fully in favour of three 'angles' of attack.One is against retro-fitting of Xenon's to cars that don't have automatic load compensation motors.Two is maintenance of those load compensation motors. They either react too slowly, or break.Three is left dipping. Nothing is more likely to blind you on a motorway when you are in the correct lane than the dipped Xenon's of a Porsche or something frying your eyeballs via the drivers door mirror as it comes up behind to overtake.

Epilogue

Thanks HJ.

Porsche cars are great pieces of engineering but be better for the rest off us if they could get their lighting set not to dazzle others!

There is a petition to sign if you wish to help in getting these lights set to a standard that would suit the majority of drivers. Go to http://www.blindedbixenon.co.uk/ and register via the green petition link.
