Stolen

[Pol Anorl]

Stolen: 80% of headlight bulbs belonging to cages I pass on my commute.

The fuck is with this, is the recession that bad people are only running 1 bulb on high bean to save electrics

On my 14 mile commute I see about 15 cars with only 1 headlight bulb, on the way home earlier 2 cars in a row had a bulb out.

I was thinking about this last night on the way home from manchester on the M62.

I was getting pissed off with the amount of cars with a blown bulb and compensating by whacking on full beam, along with the cunts who have poorly adjusted lights blinding me from a mile off.

Surely the fact that there are so many of these blown bulb cars, it means that traffic cops aren't doing their job?

bulbs are difficult to change in most modern motors which is some of it, the other thing is modern lights are pretty good so even on 1 lamp you can see ok.

Most people dont notice, replaced a dipped beam bulb in my car today that my wife didnt notice was out. Whats worse is the diy numpties who try and do it themselves and then blind everyone because they fitted the bulb upside down. Which doesnt include me as im a certified bulb fitter.

I blame the keep your headlights on at all times otherwise you'll crash AND DIIIIEEEEEEE crap for causing them to burn out quicker... and the extra fuel they must use over the course of a year

Hmm, people are mostly stupid I think.

Just the other night I stopped my bike and got off to tell the bmw behind me that they had their lights off.

As for car lights, at first I actually thought people didn't know.

But I have a colleague at work, who had a Ford Ka and would only change his headlight bulbs when both went. (Well I had to change them because he hasn't a clue, with the Ka you have to take the front wheel off and the wheel arch lining).

When he was selling the car, I think he had 1 headlight out, 2 brakes and I think 2 rear driving lights. He got stopped and fined.

Thing is I offered to fix it, but he couldn't be arzxxed.

There's also people I know who seriously take their car to a dealer to have a bulb changed and are somehow shocked and even embarrassed that Mr IT Kawakid is quite handy when it comes to motors.

You'll notice the ones with a bulb out [*].

But yes, it can be a ball-ache to swap them out. For a wonder, my 10 year old C3 still hasn't blown a bulb, but I believe it's a "go in through the anus wheel arch" job.

That said, I do enjoy seeing a Halfrauds monkey half swallowed inside a bonnet effing and blinding as he tries to earn his £3.

[27cows]

Bane of my life too. What the fuck possesses anyone to think using one headlight on full beam is an acceptable way to carry on after they have a bulb blow? Have they never heard of carrying a spare?

Some day every other car is on one brake light too. FFS, cagers.

Seriously I've had cars where it's easier to change a gearbox than a headlamp bulb, why something so theoretically simple and so predictably necessary should be so difficult is a total mystery to me.

I changed the headlamp bulbs (that's right, they failed within a month of each other) within 3 days of them blowing.

I got flashed out of a junction by a bloke with one bulb out, the light that worked actually got brighter,

made me wonder if one bulb missing means less power drawn from the circuit = brighter remaining bulb

What's worse is all these bodged HID jobs and xenon DIY jobs on corsa's that blind me even on dipped beam.

I heard (no-source) the were planning to ban them soon because of this??

Pisses me of driving Miss S 'truck'. The amount of people who try put full beam on when we are coming up.

Love to give them some light with the 6 100watt lights I just put on her bumper and head bar. They soon swerve at the sun coming at them.
