    Below is a video clip from a few nights ago on my way home. That particular digital billboard is directly facing the northbound lane of Pres. Osmena Highway as you approach Pres. Quirino Ave.

    The LED light from the digital billboard, combined with falling rain and a wet/highly-reflective road, causes severe glare to oncoming drivers. VERY hazardous, IMO.

    I think that the billboard is too low and positioned almost directly at line-of-sight to everyone. And even more obvious, it's too bright for use at night... ruins drivers' night vision.

    How do we bring this up to the attention of the people involved in giving permits for such monstrosity?

    Add ko rin yung sa EDSA Northbound, just before you reach the Shaw Underpass.
    Parang may isang libong kotseng may HID na naka tapat sa yo.

    Tapos, madalas puro commercial ng SMART ang pinapalabas sa LED billboard na yon. EH yung mga commercial ng SMART, puro puti yung background.

    Report natin sa media na lang 'to, para may mangulit. Kala ko ako lang nakapansin nito. Every time na magmemenor ako or stop, dalangin ko sana attentive yung kasunod ko, baka kasi nasilaw or dun sa billboard nakatingin, nalibang.
