In America, the attitude is "more is better" which has escalated to "even more is even better." I'm starting to get ticked off by this on my bike route. First, people are using lights brighter than they need, which wouldn't be so bad if they aimed them considerately. The beams that are pointed straight and flash are the worst for me.
