    Yellow glasses, leather driving gloves, slick back hair and a 20-something blonde in the passenger seat...bring back the 70s :rotfl:

    Also if driving in an unlit area and there's a vey bright light up ahead, such as a working light at roadworks, close one eye until you've gone through it. It'll help maintain your night vision.

    Great idea.....means you have little or no perception of distance or depth just as you're entering roadworks.:rolleyes:

    I don't seem to have a problem with it and as someone who drives upwards of 400 miles a night, I think I would have..

    Not being able to see very much at all for a couple of minutes afterwards is a far worse proposition.

    And judging by the speed you morons are crawling through the roadworks from M1 J20-21 every night, you won't be going fast enough for it to be an issue.

    Just a question; what is so bloody interesting about a road planer with a flashing orange light on that you feel the need to slow to <5MPH holding up thousands of vehicles behind you?

    these yellow lenses arent really good for night time driving.
    what they are good for is when driving in and out of dark and light areas repetitively.
    like forklift truck drivers driving in and out of dark buildings out into the sunshine,or vice versa. they save your eyes from constantly having to adjust quickly to the different brightness.
    so not so good for a constant darkness.
