UK drivers worry about bright headlights, prompting new safety measures.

A new UK survey finds 82% of drivers are concerned about dazzling headlights as darker evenings return, with 75% citing bright oncoming lights as their top nighttime driving worry. Experts link the issue to modern LED and bi-xenon bulbs, higher-mounted headlights on SUVs, and misaligned lights. The government is responding with a TRL-commissioned report, stricter enforcement against illegal retrofit bulbs—fines up to £1,000—and a scheduled Westminster Hall debate to address safety concerns and seek balanced solutions.
