Some people here would say, "Hey, at least he saw her!", but really, it was stupidly obnoxious.
I have used my light in a passive aggressive way by subtly aiming it at a rear view mirror at a four way stop when a driver was being a real idiot to another driver. Otherwise I am careful where the helmet light is directed.
