Im the only person i know who does this, and i do it in any vehicle, all the time.

I find that in daylight, i dont like to see the sky and it feels too bright, and i get the same feeling from streetlights too. It's not like im blinded by the sky or streetlights, it just annoys me having to see them, so the visor comes down, even at night or in crappy weather. This is the same for all vehicles and always has been.

I like to feel boxed in when im in a car, thats why an estate with rear tinted windows and black headlining is like heaven to me. I hate any sort of light in the car.

Anyone else?

Hmm, same as me.

Well then no, I have no idea why you'd want to do it!

I always have mine down too. I find the sky too bright, distracting and superfluous.

As a plus I think I have very good night vision smile

Wafflesmk2, seen driving earlier with his sun visor down.



I like light, so my visor stays up unless needed.

Sunvisor down for me as well. Only realised that some people think it's odd when remarking that the Astra with that panoramic windscreen is very unappealing.

I do it in the van. There is a lot of windscreen above where I need to look. Stops eye strain/ head aches on longer journeys. I push it back up at junctions etc if a cant clearly see the traffic lights.
