TheTwirler   10 #112 Posted February 17, 2014 We drove past it about 1am the other night and it was off. To be honest I quite appreciated the light from it as the streetlights there are never on and it's pitch black, not ideal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

ECCOnoob   1,051 #118 Posted February 18, 2014  ****** me off that a private vendor was able to get planning permission for this in the first place.  Probably because there was nothing wrong with it.  God sake, what is wrong with folk. They are making it sound like its a shot of laser light direct into a retina.  What is going on here. Is there a mass of crushed cars piled up in the central reservation after being "dazzled" by the display - NO  Is there a queue of people in the Northern Gen seeking treatment for burns to their eyes due to the brightness - NO.  Its a bloody sign. I really do wonder how some people cope with their lives. Ever driven on a unlit motorway with hundreds of "dazzling" car headlights in the other direction - somehow we drivers can cope.  Ever been on a country road with a driver behind you driving with full beam - somehow we drivers cope.  How about the feeling when you suddenly emerge from a pitch dark country road into the neon glow of a floodlit A road - somehow we drivers cope.  I really hope these complaints get the response they deserve. Never known anything like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

How did you cope with the result, I wonder.  I drove past the sign last night and guess what? I did not go blind and did not crash my car. Now there's a surprise!
