Audax rides

Hi people who like riding for long distances in the dark. Is there anything that can be done about temporary blindness caused by oncoming traffic not dipping its headlights? I just nearly took myself out by riding into a kerb I couldn't see.

The only thing i found to work was pulling a cycling cap down as far as you can and looking at your front wheel until it's goes past.

That's what I do, as well. You can normally anticipate them coming as they just light up the road so much. Dip your head before the lights hit you.

Best thing I've found is closing one eye as the vehicle approaches, then switching eyes once it's gone past. Works pretty well.

I've tried that but it doesn't work for me. The time between the lights appearing and disappearing is too great. My one open eye becomes completely blind in just a moment and if I opened my other eye when that happens I'd see nothing.
