That’s the nub of the problem, how bright is acceptable and Does it need to be aimed? I know cars have all this set out in laws and regulations and I think bike lights need some guidance in this department. The amount of people that come charging down well lit bike lanes in London with strobes blasting at you is ridiculous and has caused me to pratfall more than once. Lights are good obviously but after a certain level it’s probably counter productive.
