5AM. Leaving work off night shift. Come to intersection at I-10. Police cruiser stopped in left lane first at light, as I approach the light in right lane. I casually glance at the police car, and a guy in a pickup pulls out of convenience store parking lot and turns in behind the cop. The cop painfully winces as the blue HID lights blind him in his rearview mirror, and looks extremely irritated as his cruiser interior is filled with the harsh blue HID light.
About a week later, I ask a County Sheriff I know does he "notice the HID lights" on the road, and does it really matter. He tells me seeing "anything out of the ordinary" gets their attention. This would include such as loud exhaust system, or way oversized tires and suspension, or extreme lowriding, or HID LIGHTING!
Cops are getting blinded too, and they ain't real happy!
