Same for bicycle lights too, and street lights.

Nearly all UK drivers say bike lights are too bright?

Do you have a citation or was that an edgy culture war comment?

[egormakarov]

I have a problem with many fellow cyclists here in Germany, because they seem to use something that shouldn't be street-legal as bicycle lighs (very annoying in the night on unlit road)

Not sure what UK drivers would say about that, though

[jabbywocker]

I think it’s his personal opinion, so no need to provide a citation.

But don’t let that stop you from starting your diatribe

I don’t understand the seeming lack of regulation for flashing bike lights.

I don’t mean a simple “normal” flashing light, but the super bright ones that are like a camera flash strobe going off 2-3x per second which hurts your eyes and kills your night vision, making it hard to see anything including the actual cyclist.

It used to be law that a bicycle had to have a solid on light front and back at night, and any extra flashing lights were optional extras that didn't count, but they scrapped that law several years ago.

The sun as well, too bright.

The whole big blue room outside is much too bright, we need strict regulation so that nerds are finally comfortable leaving their caves.
