    Ummm some trucks can't turn them off. But I agree so far there are few of us with this problem and it is easier to see with them off.

    I once left my headlights on after parking for the night

    Forgot to turn them off

    If there's an issue give the guy you're bothered by a court set knock and see if the problem can be rectified.

    Or are you one of the many truckers who just whine and never take appropriate measures to find solutions?

    I mentioned that I asked him to turn them off. I have no problem voicing my opinion. I try what I can to share the light on others. I'm only one man though...

    So, it never dawned on you that guys will do that to light up their rig at night so you can see it and not back into it? If he had his high beams on, #### happens but the intent was likely good.

    Again, it was his headlights. Looking directly at me as I'm trying to watch my trailer. He turned them off, then back on. That was all there was to it.
