If you feel like vehicle headlights have gotten too bright and are blinding you on the road, Transport Canada wants to hear from you. The federal agency is conducting a survey on headlights that have gotten a lot brighter over the years, with some experts saying they’re a safety concern.

Vehicles with bright LED lights are becoming a more common trend that semi-truck drivers are noticing first-hand on the road.

Bill Fries has been a trucker for 30 years and said the stronger headlights can be useful, but harsh on the eyes. “LED lights are extremely bright, they don’t really have distance. They’re intense, and if the drivers don’t adjust them, quite often I wear those yellow glasses, nighttime driving glasses that kill the glare and take a lot of the blue light out,” he said.

That increased glare is a key part of Transport Canada’s national survey. As Jasmine King reports, it’s asking Canadians how headlight glare affects them and their experience on the road at night.
