Scary relective decals for rear windscreen

[LeMarchand]

Whilst looking at anti-photography ideas, I came across these: https://www.thisiswhyimbroke.com/uk/scary-high-beam-reflective-decals/

 

 

Exact petty revenge on flashing tailgaters by affixing these scary high-beam reflective decals on your car’s rear window. The decals can only be seen when a fellow car’s high-beam lights shine on your vehicle – revealing the disturbing ghost’s ominous face.

 

Very tempted, though the "bright lights to the rear" problem is easily solved with tilting. What I really want is something that targets those that drive around on full beam/with "supernova strength" lights and doesn't affect the cars behind them. The yellow "driving glasses" I recently bought have alleviated this, but revenge is sweet.

I bet they are illegal due to the fact it can be classed as a distraction.

Probably . Even though "Night Breaker" levels of light from headlamps is a much more regular distraction.

yeah sadly I think they would distract me at night, especially if I was driving in the dark when I am more likely to be tired. Especially if I am focusing on "what, is that a face??" instead of focusing on "looks like there is something in the road, the guy in front might brake hard"

 

What they should really do like you said is stop these new cars having irritatingly bright lights that there really is no need for. When you can't tell if someone has their fullbeams on, or just have these silly ultrabright LED lights, it has gone too far.
