RANT: Naka Hi-Beam na, naka floodlights pa!Grrrrrr....

[jim]

Hay mabubulag na ata ako. Lahat ng nasasalubong kong mga bagong sasakyan sa Aguinaldo Hi-way ganyan sila. Para silang mga bulag, di makita ang daan. Di man lang nila inisip na kawawa yung mga kasalubong nila na sasakyan. Ok lang sana kung Hi-beam lang e anak ng teteng pati floodlights/spotlight eh gamit din

[falken]

Ewan ko nga kung saan natutong magdrive ang mga ganyang ogags na driver. Ako nga, ang taas ng grado ng mata ko di ko naman kailangan mag high beam magdrive.

[BoEinG_747]

hindi lang pala ako ang nakakapuna diyan sa mga motorista
sa Aguinaldo Hi-way,madami pala kami

mahirap iyan pati iyon mga bata ,pag nakita ganon ginagawa ng mga matatanda ,cgurado gagayahin ang driving style ng mga ganyan klase na driver

sakit sa mata noh

[Sheep]

im guilty of such in aguinaldo highway mahirap na ang dami kasing pedestrians minsan ang dilim tapos biglang tumatawid so it leaves me no choice either to glare other motorist or hit imbecile pedestrians

but i try to limit the usage of my high beams and floodlamps
i only use it when there is little or no oncoming traffic and in parts of aguinaldo thats are really pitched black (may part kasi na walang poste ng ilaw lalo na pag madaling araw tapos may mga lasing na dumadaan)

karamihan ng tao blind kapag gabi... and to prevent other cars from cutting you...

[ts1n1ta]

asar den ako sa ganyan. in fairness to some people, binababa nila yung highbeams pag nag flicker den ako. yung iba sobrang manhid. pag ganun, pag nagkatapat kme binubusinahan ko talaga. sabay karipas ng takbo. :lol: perfect example yung puting eddie bauer exped dito sa may amen. Kala mo may fog ang paligid naka hid pa. amp. eh nasa loob lang ng village.

[Isuzoom]

Dark tint then naka high beam and fogs...hayyyyy talino naman.

[ILuvDetailing]

ts1n1ts: Kabitan mo din ng HIDs yung F150 niyo, with fogs... wag lang mabangga

[the_wildthing]

Ok lang naman basta walang kasalubong.

Jim, kahit ba i-bright mo saglit to signal them ayaw pa rin patayin?

[oldblue]

san ba yan aguinaldo hiway?

[Sheep]

san ba yan aguinaldo hiway?

Cavite where lots of idiot pedestrians live

[jim]

Cavite where lots of idiot pedestrians live

yeah i agree. a lot of people there don't know where to cross the hi-way properly. kaya minsan din naka-hi-beam ako.pero once may makasalubong ako malayo pa lang nagdi-dim na ako. yung ibang mga driver ala talaga kahit pa senyasan mo tigas parin. tuloy parang gusto ko baguhin yung alignment ng headlights ko yung tipong tatama sa mukha ng kasalubong mo pag nag-hi beam

[vhenok]

meron din mang-aasar....in just a few meters biglang high....waaahhh!

Just a thought:

The regular beams of our Sonata is much brighter than the high beams of our Contour. I'm assuming floodlights there mean fog lights here. Both of our cars have factory fog lights and both cars cannot have both high beams and fog lights on at the same time. It's either one or the other.

Of course, the previous statement doesn't apply when the floodlights/foglights were installed by 3rd parties and thus, can be used together with high beams.

I do tend to use my fog lights with my regular beams because everybody else do. It's pretty rare to see fog here (unlike California). So, most people use their fog lights as an extra pair of headlights to see the road better because the road paint doesn't last very long here.

yeah, i find it rudely stupid that after they have acknowledged and had their high beam turned off, just as when they come close to you , right before passing you by, they turn it on again, which is still dangerously blinding.

[bajumbo]

hmmm foglyts... useful ba talaga yan sa fog or rain? kc noon may L200 kami na may foglyts gamit sa bundok... nung umulan walang silbi ung foglyts naaabsorb din nung ulan white kc... pero kapag yellow ung foglyts lumulusot kahit malakas na ulan.

marami nga ako nakikitang nakahi beam dyan kaya kapag pupunta ako manila I go through Slex na lang... safe naman din. In fairness ha ung iba kapag kinindatan mo naglolobeam naman kaso ung iba manhid nga. minsan gusto ko palagyan ung kotse ko ng daylight wasting lights sa ibabaw na may servo motor para pede ko itatapat sa kanila. cguro mga floodlights ipapakabit ko.

If you use fog lights in fog, yes. In California, fog can be so thick you can't see 10 feet ahead and often times even the road can't be seen. Fog lights enable you to at least see the road. That's why they're located down there. You still have to slow down because you still wouldn't be able to see 10 feet ahead.

Here in Arizona, they're useless because we rarely get fog. But, people love them because they make the car look "sporty". The road paint here also wears out pretty fast between monsoon rains and 120F (48C) degree weather (ang init!). Fog lights are sometimes the only way to see them at night.

yup ito nga ang problem .may mga driver na pag nag hi/lo beam ka naman ay binababa naman nila ,
pero meron talaga manhid or cguro ang reason nila ay lalagpas din naman iyan ..

meron din mang-aasar....in just a few meters biglang high....waaahhh!

meron talaga ganito super manhid na ito dahil intentional na ang pang sisilaw

[Bogeyman]

Floodlights + high beams = OA.

It would be nice kung bigla na lang mamatay ang baterya ng mga yan in the middle of their 'flash' tripping...
