Fears raised bright headlights are unsafe

June 18, 2025

MOTORISTS might soon see significant changes to driving conditions as potential changes to regulations regarding 'dazzling' headlights are on the horizon.

The Government is expected to release the findings of a study examining LEDs and road safety this summer. The investigation follows a survey from 2023, which revealed most UK drivers have voiced concerns over the excessive brightness of modern car headlights. The research aims to scrutinise the elements contributing to headlight glare and assess possible measures to mitigate the blinding effect on drivers.
