    You’re god damn right.

    Sorry… I mean… as a dad who did some driving with younger kids at night with their stuff with the backlights. You have to understand that you’ve just blinded me to everything, and it’s also very distracting. But to be fair, it wasn’t just the kids. My wife would do the same damn thing with her laptop, and that was a far bigger light. And a far more delicate method of approaching.

      You have some major night blindness. My gf is the same way and any light in the car blinds her. I can drive with the lights on, tablets and gaming systems going, all no issues. She now only drives at night when I am so tired it’s dangerous, and often we will just pull over on road trips and sleep for a bit

      Slam the brakes full-stop on the highway, reach over, open the door, kick her out, speed away. The adult version of “I will turn this car around”.

      Right? …right?
