The top one is diffused, bottom one untouched and only shining forward like a laser.

This is obviously no special flashlight, but rather a simple example of how to fix/address the obvious problems with blinding LED headlights mentioned in this post…

    I hear you all the way around there, and yes I had my mirrors set correctly, and am aware of the rear view flipper shader thing. But what do when the douchebag behind you is in a huge truck, right on your ass and stays right on your ass with full on bright lights?

    The dude was blinding me so badly from behind that I wouldn’t have even been able to see a pedestrian or much of any surprise creature or object in front of me.

    Honestly, in hindsight, maybe I could have turned on my emergency flashers and pulled over as if my vehicle had just broke down or something, but seriously I think that dude was getting his rocks off by deliberately blinding me. ☹️
