my eyes are proper sensitive to fullbeam, and also probably non-fullbeam. But i just slow down and wait till theyre past. At worst ill look at them and over squint with a disapproving look on my face.
I'll tell you what I'm enjoying at the moment. Going 30 in 30mph zones with cars ramming me up the arse.
I find it hilarious....its like, no, im not going to speed and get fined, maybe even kill a small child, just because you like clutching onto my bottem. So i just keep glancing in my mirror and smirking.

My girlfriend does the same!!
She also slowes down rapidly when a car with lights on comes towards her, regardless of what sort of beam it is!!

one of my favouritee thing about my polo
the sensitivity of the rear brake lights

scares crap outta them

This thread reminded me of something that happened whilst I was driving in the fog we had a couple of weeks ago.
I was driving back from ASDA quiet late at night with my gf when two lads in a corsa who were behind me kept putting their main beam on and off for 5-10 secs at a time.
This irratated the crap out of me as I couldnt see anything each time they did it. So I slowed down even more (to about 5 mph) and eventually they overtook me, as soon as they were in front I started doing the same to them flashing main beam on and off repeatedly (to the annoyance of my gf who hates it when I behave like that).
Anyway the corsa lads must have got the message coz they actually mouthed an apology when we were stopped at the lights further down the road.
I know I shouldnt have stooped to their level but if it makes them think twice about doing it again it was well worth it.
Edit
I also do the brake thing mentioned above, its the best way to get people out from up your ass on the motorway!

Not a corsa, but particularly bad driving by this vauxhall owner, well and the driver of the certain other car for reacting !!

Asked if they were necessary at 11am - yes yes they are, it's dull and raining and i was taught - wipers on lights on!
I did have to laugh and unfortunately he turned off at the next road as i wanted to put them even higher!
Xenon's FTW!!!
Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he was already blind...Old git...

I find if someone is up your arse at speed a tap of the brake pedal with the left foot to light your brake lights whilst simultaneously flooring the throttle with your right foot is quite effective at removing people from my bumper.
I've tried the rear foglight on to let someone know they're too close for my liking before and it's worked.
