LOL
It doesn't matter that they're "aimed down", they're freakin HIDs that are bouncing off the reflector bowls of the stock headlights without any sort of projector to keep the beams out of people's eyes. There's a reason hid lights from the factory use a projector. They're HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE lol
Yes you may be driving around with your "low beams"on but that doesn't change the fact that you're still blinding everyone else.

All the ricers around here do that **** too with the HIDs. Pisses me off to no end.
Put your regular bulbs back in or get the proper setup. You're hurting people!

Dude, if you like your HIDs then leave them in, who cares what other people think, if they get all pissy, let them they're going to end up passing you eventually and then later on down the road forgetting that you have them.

I wouldn't take his advice ^
If there are other drivers up by you that are like me, you will eventually get in trouble with them. I will intentionally brake check someone that is blinding me from behind hopin they will rear end me and pay for a new car for me to drive. And I'd also make the point to mention to the responding officer that I couldn't see anything because the intense lighting that engulfed my entire car from improper use of HID bulbs.

Seriously if you did that to me I'd follow you wherever you're going and smash your headlights out with the tire iron in my car when you were inside whatever place you were driving to.

If you're seriously a big enough idiot to not give a crap about potentially causing an accident for the sake of having Hoosierific headlights, then maybe you shouldn't be driving at all.

and when there's car coming dead on with bright lights (ie: a pickup truck with their lights high up, or a semi, or an "idiot like me"), I just look down to the right at the line on the road. You must develop way too much road rage, which is the reason you'd get into potential accidents, not because I blind you for a second.

ok?
I'm not the one starting hate...I really don't care, I'm not gonna change my car because some people find it annoying. I do a lot of night-time highway, and these help me see better since the transcanadian is barely lit up.

Fine don't change your car, but don't make idiotic comments about how you don't like it when people flash their lights at you and you think you did nothing wrong. That's just being ignorant.
