Also, back when I delivered pizza I kept a rather large LED flashlight in my cupholder all the time, ostensibly for spotting mailboxes and house numbers. (This was back in the day when having a powerful LED flashlight was a big deal, not like nowadays when you can get 3 for $10 on Amazon or whatever.) Pointing it out the back window usually got the point across when asshats felt the need to sit three feet off my back bumper and shine their high beams at me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) Shit if I find myself night commuting again on back roads I might have to keep such a flashlight in my car. I've had so many trucks light up my entire fucking cabin with their illegal light mods permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) My attorney has advised me to make no statements whatsoever regarding the applicability of the Lumintop Thor Mini I just bought the other week, which outputs a mere 250 lumens but does so in a narrow cone that's got, to my reckoning, a divergence of only about four or five degrees. I'll have to do some measuring later, but at rear-windshield-to-asshole distance it'll only throw a spot that's probably about a foot wide, delivering maximum fuck you with a minimum of collateral damage. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) that's pretty expensive for 250 lumens. i can get 500 for a third the price. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago In an LEP light? A regular LED, sure. But those lack the novelty of being able to lance somebody in the face with a laser beam. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TassieTosser@aussie.zone 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) People keep saying this but I tried it and its really hard to do that and concentrate on driving. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 1 point 1 year ago Yeah the one time I tried it I ended up just mucking up my own mirrors and not managing to shine the light back in their eyes permalink fedilink source parent
