I don't mind brake lights being on in front of me when stationery (or is it stationary?) during the day but it's just inconsiderate when it gets dark. Most people don't think about their driving though and so don't bother to think whether what they're doing is inconsiderate even though they'd probably complain if somebody infront of them did it.
Oooh, first "blinding brake lights thread of the year"!
How about looking anywhere else other than staring at the lights in front of you? You can tell by the glare that you don't need to look forwards, so use the time to look somewhere less blinding instead.
Or you can stop further back, because less light/fewer photons will hit you in the eye if you are further back (unless they have upgraded to lasers for brake lights).

Another one who should've gone to Specsavers. They could make a fortune here...How about looking anywhere else other than staring at the lights in front of you? You can tell by the glare that you don't need to look forwards, so use the time to look somewhere less blinding instead.

Unless it is, and my reading glasses are broken. Anyone know an optician?

especially modern cars with obscenely bright LED light clusters.
Sat behind a new Audi A7 the other night and the high level LED brake light on that was seriously bright. To the point it was hurting my eyes (although could also have had something to do with how knackered I was). As for looking away, bit hard in traffic when every other pleb has their foot attached to the brake pedal because using the hand/electric parking brake is too much hard work.
