Do you get "flashed" while driving your S?

I get flashed all the time too, maybe i should try flashing back lol

someone suggested to me once that maybe one of my headlights is sitting higher than the other?

~I say let them flash, if it makes them feel better, we're still in the better car

I've been flashed in the "girls gone wild" variety and the "hey asshole, your highbeams are on" variety. I like the "girls gone wild" version better.

Hahahaha! I also mis-read the thread.

I used to get flashed (as in hi-beamed) a whole lot when I had my '00 Berlina Black. I had the lights adjusted twice and finally, the flashing stopped.

In my current S2000, I was actually flashed (mooned) when I was coming back from the Dragon. A couple of guys in a 4Runner, one of them had their entire ass on the rear side window. Nasty stuff!

I had an on-comming car flash their brights at me one night when I was 15, and in the s2k, and so I decided I would show them how pretty my real brights were. Turns out to be a cop

I've gotten this also, but I think it's from the more backward drivers out there who don't know about the "new blue lights". Since the same thing happens to my Acura 4 door sedan, it can't all be sports car envy.
