    Xenons/LEDs - do you get flashed a lot?

    Since getting my new car with the swivelling xenons I've been flashed a lot more where people think the main beam is on. In my area the street lighting goes off at midnight. So I guess a lot of people assume my main beam is on. Anyone else suffer this?
