Scariest thing I read was that you are going to be a pilot
A bit of common courtesy goes a long way while on highways. I know that the lighting on the Z is terrible on dark roads, but you don't need to use them when behind an 18 wheeler....at least until you pass them? Sounds rational to me. The side mirrors still reflect a lot of light from high beams even when you have the rearview dimmed.
Your use of the word 'like' gets 'like' really irritating 'like'. Try omitting it in your next post.
