Ooo, cool! I haven't encountered this yet but it will come.

Yesterday evening, while driving in the car, I saw an oncoming cyclist on the other side of the road with 3 incredibly bright lights, 2 on the handlebar, one on his helmet. Despite being 4 lanes over, the lights were incredibly bright and, with the helmet-mounted light, it looked weird. It actually took me a moment to figure out what I was seeing that had a triangle of bright lights. It made me have second thoughts about considering a helmet-mounted light. In reality, this person did not need so many or so much light considering s/he was on a well-lit road.
