The survey lasts until April 20. I’m glad transport Canada is looking into it.
Edit: thanks @Quilotoa@lemmy.ca for pointing out that I got the date wrong.

I’d also like to see enforcement of proper headlight aiming. While lights really are too bright, it’s crazy that no one aims them properly.
An educational program about proper aiming, along with a check stop style safety sweep would help mitigate a lot of the issues.
Then again, we could just do the smart thing and mandate auto-leveling headlights, but that would be too simple.
I’m unclear how aiming solves the issue of a car with ungodly bright headlights going over a speed bump and blinding me.
Self-leveling headlights account for bumps, that’s literally their purpose.
For the record, I did say that lights are too bright. I don’t disagree at all. But there are two distinct issues at play here, and both need to be addressed.
This is probably gonna sound really unfortunate, but…: wait, you can aim your headlights?!
I drive a little rusting out budget car, but even so, I will be looking into aiming my headlights.
There will be a couple of adjustment screws but they can be in odd places or hard to get to. Check your service manual. Owners manual probably won’t mention it
Only solution is maximum height of lights. Make these massive SUVs and trucks look stupid with the light dragging on a lower bumper.
I never understood why bigger cars can have their bulbs at a higher level.
Because fuck the world.
The lights are supposed to be aimed lower, but then dipshits lift the trucks for no good reason and don’t re-aim the lights.
