Yeah , can be hard to see anything when the highway patrol has lights blinding.... Of course during daylight my tail lights are all flashing and they'd be awful at night , there are 6. I still use a flasher at night, but its not quite as brite and the extra solid tail lights make it easier to see where I am. Interesting that it isn't uncommon for me to see the highway patrol at 5 miles, yet the cars slam on their brakes and move over at 200 feet, or sometimes less.
