Description of the problem	This applies to all of the newer cars, trucks etc. I don't know what the new headlights are called, but they are bright white or bluish in tint. I have experienced many times where the oncoming cars with these light blind me to the point i can't see the road in front of me. I don't know what can be done since more and more people have these lights and us them in conjunction with fog lights. Please look into this matter, i can't be the only person with the same issue. Thank you stanley przybylski
