Description

I noticed new light bulbs were installed on the street this past week. LED and not the soft orange light that dispersed light like we used to have. They are terrible. I cannot see 2 feet off the blacktop. There are runners and dog walkers and the orange light used to softly disperse the light and I could see the pedestrians. These new lights are creepy. They reflect off the cars like another car is coming, but they don't reflect off runners yellow/white reflection vests the same way. I don't like the new lights. They are very focused on the street blacktop and probably more cost or energy efficient, but I don't think it makes the neighborhood safer. I can't see better with no sidewalks and someone standing in the grass. Maybe we need a color filter or the lights need to be refocused for optimal lighting. Maybe these light bulbs in this version of the lights is not optimal.
