Should not turn on High beam unnecessarily. it will blind people trying to check mirror.

 

Only use when trying to signal others of danger, or use in malaysia roads without street lights.

With great Power, comes great responsibility.

Actually i've got this weird idea to fix an extra lamp facing my rear, cos those drivers which irritate me most are those tailgaters and i always feel like beaming them but impossible, haha

 

better yet: have those high intensity flash (red light cam those type) to blind those idiots trying to kiss our a$$... a la CS thunder flash...

 

bwahaahaha... juz kidding arh.. :sweat:

exactly...even so, do not permanently switch to high beam throughout your journey in m'sia..wait you might accidentally disturb "other" beings, if you know what i mean...heheheh

Define Danger

 

More time on road = More Danger

Less time on road = Less Danger

 

Slower Speed = More Time On Road

Faster Speed = Less Time on Road

 

Thus

Less Time on Road = Less Danger = Faster Speed~~

pos·er (pozr) n.

A Sportbike rider who habitually pretends to be something he is not and only care about how they appear to the public as their bikes are nothing more than props to get them noticed by girls or even teenage boys which they want to impress with fictional tales of all the hardcore riding they do.

from the poll result it is obvious that no one likes to be high beamed at day or nite...

 

do be considerate... just like horn, do you horn every 5sec to get other people to pay attention to you?
