I was sitting there parked early in the morning it was still dark, guy was making a turn and lights caught him right in the eyes.....think he thought I had my high beams on lol

I had the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago in an 08 TL while sitting at a stop light... thing was, there's a slight upward incline at the edge of the intersection so it might have looked like I had my brights on. Then again, a lot of drivers in my area are idiots.

I havent gotten the finger yet but I've had a few drivers flash their high beams at me at night

When I drive new Range Rover at night, every single driver that passes me flashes their brights thinking my brights are on. I keep my hand on light stalk at all times at night just to flash them back with my brights after they flash me.

I will admit the Range Rover lights are way too bright.

I read this thread like 4 days ago and thought nah those low beam lightss are not that bright to be mistaken for high beams? And yesterday someone was flashing me with their lights lol so just as i was walking outta walmart i had a good enough distance in front of the car to see the lights as i unlock it with the remote and yes yup yeah it blind me lol

So many new cars today have obnoxiously bright low beams. On my old Legend there's a way to adjust the angle of the beam downwards, but I haven't looked into such a thing on the ILX.

Dude so unfortunate....

In related ILX road rage related incidents...

A MYSTERIOUS black ILX emblazoned with Marine Corps paraphernalia stickers retaliated against a WRX driver who got butthurt after getting spanked while both drivers were idiotically racing on the freeway... Apparently, unable to live with this defeat... The WRX owner tried to intentionally side swipe the ILX... and then was SHOCKED when the ILX owner OWNED his ASS by (allegedly, until proven beyond a shadow of a doubt in a court of law) throwing a golf ball directly center mass into his windshield....

Were it not for the quick moves of the ILX owner swerving out of the way, the WRX would have driven into his driver side door!... And yet the WRX owner is upset that a golfball hit his windshield? Assault with a deadly weapon VS assault?

It's HILARIOUS to me how people think they are hard until KEEPING IT REAL goes wrong... What a little bitch... SMH... If you choose to act stupid, someone may act stupider... realize who you're messing with....

Thankfully The ILX owner, who was contacted by CHP... simply said his out of state friend was driving... and he had a perfectly plausible alibi... Or so I hear..... 'Murica...

ALSO - I hear that the CHP was interested in finding the REST of the of the video... which the WRX owner mysteriously did not want to show... maybe because it shows him (pure speculation of course)... Revving like an ass continuously at the ILX... and then cutting off the black ILX.... Maybe THe black ILX got fed up with his shit and smoked him... immature on the ILX' driver's part? Yes, but maybe it wasn't vengeance... It was punishment...
