At last I find myself not alone in thinking many forms of lighting in public are just too intensely bright; from new street lighting that leaves spots in my eyes, yet curiously don't light the street very well, to the perennial problem of vehicle light; not to mention traffic and pedestrian crossing lights whose intensity (even in daylight) are way over the top. LED should mean Lights Encouraging Disaster.

Here's my near fatal experience.
Â
Driving in the dark down a busy (cars and pedestrians) local road, I nearly killed a kid (all in black as they are), who ran across the road. Why? Because the green crossing lights were so brilliant I couldn't see beyond them and I missed the bugger by inches. Lights these days are too bright.
