I think you're on to something there... run something like a Magicshine or greater (>600 lumens) on flash mode pointed rearwards during day in high danger areas. I don't think this would probably blind anyone whose eyes are already adjusted to the light of a sunny day and >100 feet away. Maybe a cop would pull you over and tell you to stop.
As far as using a DDR or DS500 at night, these taillights are so bright that you have to turn them way down or you ARE going to blind someone. As I mentioned before, the DDR can't be turned down at all on flash mode, but the DS500 can.
