No one here is talking about xenon strobe lights.
But it's not clear exactly what they are talking about. Some of them appear to not be quite clear on the difference between daytime and nighttime.
The ambient light matters. So does distance.
I sometimes find the flashing front lights irritating (at night). If you are close, there are lots of LED lights that are blinding.
