Un-fendered vehicles - I see way too many vehicles allowed to be the outfitted with wide tires outside of the vehicles fenders. Hey! I though tires are supposed to be covered by the vehicle's fenders so they wouldn't throw off rocks, spray or debris into the air at other vehicles on the highway. Those obnoxious bright-blue headlights. Since when do our regulators allow headlights that blind other drivers on the highways at night when switched on low-beam" these might be great for the other driver but they're hell on someone's retinas at night if they have the temerity to be driving out ahead. Surely we have the technology to enforce this at the brake tag station. Rain-X - why do you allow itw global brands to put this crap on people's windshields? you can't remove it and the only way to keep it from smearing and obscuring your night-time vision is to use more of it. It's like global brands is co-opting people's private property or helping to blind them on the highways. If you use the stuff as intended to bead-up rain instead of using wipers, you're breaking state law that says you must use headlights and wiper in the rain. Speeders - what is with all these people who drive on the highways like they're on meth? don't we have speed limits? can't government use the money from speeding fines? road spray - why aren't tractor trucks and trailers not required to minimize the blinding water spray they make on wet highways" there are fenders and wheel covers designed to do this.
