I commute on a scooter and see the same thing on bike paths too. Even more annoying when it's some brightness of the sun disco strobing directly in your eyes when they could easily rotate it down a few degrees.
I got blinded trying to cross a street by one of those guys who had the damn thing aimed up. He was also on the sidewalk behind parked cars and tells me he'd get hit if he turned it off.
Controversial opinion: bikes don't need lights at all. Reflectors make sense for safety reasons.
