Stephen Young, managing director of Lumicycle, makers of the LED4Si bicycle light, defended the lights, saying:“You have to offset the vulnerability of the cyclist and if that means causing a dazzle to a driver, maybe it's worth it.”
I agree they need to be regulated, some of the latest lights on pedal cycles are ridiculously dazzling and usually aimed at your face, but what a ridiculous statement!
