    Meh. My partner reads a book all the time at night, and it’s not such a big deal. Some cars are worse than others, and some people completely overreact.

      I feel like maybe night vision was more important with older cars? Now headlights are blinding.

        Older cars actually followed good practices about the interior and gauges lighting. All used red, yellow or orange backlights to not impact your night vision.

        Now cars are full of bright white screens…

      It’s a scientific fact, that light inside your car will impair your vision, when it’s dark outside, even if you feel it doesn’t.

      Look outside your window in your room at night and then shut off your lights.

      It’s a stark contrast.
