Hello all,
I rarely drive at night. If ever, usually its with my Exora. Recently I took a late night trip with my 'lagi best' full trim myvi. It was nearly the end of CNY holidays and the road was still busy - but flowing smooth instead of crawling.

However, I noticed many oncoming traffic tend to flash their hi-beams, fog light and spot-lights at certain gloomy stretches (I travelled Segamat-Gemas-Tampin-Seremban). At first my usual thoughts were 'got road-block' ahead...or 'accident nearby'...and such.

But it gets more frequent and at certain spots, even the car in-front of me just move aside, gave way, and throw an irritated+annoyed look as I passed them. BTW, i'm not a boy-race kinda person. Honest...

Apparently - I realized that my car's headlight might have just being too offensive. And I found it in an ironic but not unusual way - some other myvi and alza (full trim - i don't know what variant is it called...) which approached from the rear looks really like constantly "hi-beam"ing to me. I let them passed of course...then I knew something was just wrong with the Perodua's projector headlights.

Sad.

Some myvi-s (again, with the factory-fitted projectors), if fully loaded is even worse. The rear bottom-ed out making the normal beams already projecting to the sky! Really sad. And on a slightly bumpy roads, my car will look like playing flash-on-flash-off as if i'm looking for a road-rage to any cars upfront - oncoming or even those on the same direction...

*sigh*

Anyway, thanks for reading. And in case you came across with some flashy-flashy headlight myvi (or alza) at night...I'm sorry. That could be me...
