The LED lights are extremely dangerous. They impair the vision of others. This needs to be rectified.

- #11708240January 1, 2026VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
This report is being made within 1 1/2 hours after the incident. It has not been inspected by a dealer, service center, nor any other agency. I was stopped at a local fast food restaurant waiting to pay for my purchase. The 2021 Ford F-150 was in drive with my foot on the brake. No warning lights or other indication were present. Without warning, the engine revved to a high rpm and the truck shot forward about 15-20 feet before I could react by putting my full weight on the brake pedal. The engine quickly slowed. I then put the vehicle in reverse and backed up to the window and placed the transmission in park. The truck is equipped with adaptive cruise control but it was not active at the time of the incident. Had there been another vehicle in front of me, I would have rear-ended them. I work from home and use the truck a couple of times per week and it is available for inspection most days.

My life was put at risk because of an oncoming Ford F-150. The placement and brightness of the headlights are such that oncoming drivers are immediately blinded and unable to see anything as the vehicle approaches and passes. I was nearly run off the road because I was completely blinded by the brightness if the headlights. I almost crashed into a tree. I barely escaped with my life intact.

LED headlights from multiple oncoming vehicles have shined very brightly in my eyes that I've almost gone off the road more than a couple times. They don't need to be so bright! And I don't think a lot of drivers who have them really care how it affects other drivers.

Blinding LED headlights from this vehicle around 5:45pm on way to grocery store. Height of headlamps above ground level, intensity of the weird light emitted caused my wife & I in our vehicle to be blinded to pedestrians in store parking lot. As a driver, after getting a full blast of this light I was seeing blanked out visual field. Sight started coming back, I continued process of parking, (after obstructing traffic from stopping until I could see) and scared a pedestrian I could not see even after the sensation of returned sight. Please do something about these unnecessarily bright lights. I must not be the only one.

LancasterNH3584United States[XXX]"I keep saying why do people need to see up a raccoons a_ _ a mile away. They are blinding me. When someone goes by me at night with LED lights I am blinded. It is not a good feeling when you are wondering if you are still in your lane because you can't see anything other than extremely bright lights. They need to be banned. i never had problems driving and still don't with regular lights they don't bother me but the LEDS are horrible. Please get rid of them."

KohlerWI53044United States[XXX]"Something needs to be done about this issue. It has only been getting worse over the years. There are also people now replacing more of their old headlights with these LEDs with out purchasing and replacing the reflectors; without replacing those they actually turn out to be worse than the headlights on these new vehicles that are just as bad or worse. Need to get recalls out on these newer vehicles. Own a car that is almost not possible to drive at night due to this issue. Have almost been in an accident every week being on second shift due to this issue. It is now getting so bad with these newer vehicles to the point we are even having issues driving a fullsize truck at night which has never happened to us in our 15 years of driving. The brights are also an issue as well cause of people not being able to shut them off while driving past you or passing. Please do something about this already. It really is out of hand."

As I am driving at night, I am frequently blinded by excessively intense headlights, very often those on large pickup trucks like the F150. If I blink my high beams at them, the blink back with their even more intense high beams! It is obvious that the 1) the low beams are far too bright for oncoming drivers and 2) that the low beams are not aimed at the road, but at the windshields of oncoming cars. This temporarily blinding of oncoming drivers is very problematic, especially for drivers with cataracts that have not yet been treated. My wife has had to stop driving at night. The NHTSA should adopt maximum brightness standards and the police should enforce them with tickets and fines for those who violate these standards.
