To destroy the high beam assembly on cars who's drivers refuse to dip or change to their low beams when approaching oncoming traffic.
These drivers will learn quickly to exercise this most basic of courtesies to other drivers.

//These drivers will learn quickly// unless, of course, they die in a head-on collision with said oncoming traffic as a result of being hit by a missile. |

I'd have thought punishing thoughtlessness with violence was a bit mfd-ish, really - somewhere between rant and cruelty? |
|
|
I suppose there might be an exception if the violence were a bit more ingenious. |
|
|
Now there's a real halfbaked idea - blind oncoming traffic with a laser. |
|
|
Retro-reflectors might work. |

They are little tiny headlight sized missles. I'm figuring like getting hit by a rock while driving, little thump and headlight goes out. |

Were not trying to kill people here just kill the high beams which can be quite dangerous rather than just inconsiderate. I have nearly struck pedestrians in town due to being blinded by the glare of some guy with his high beams on. |

Paintballs would be fun. With tracers. |

Not long ago, I was driving on a dark road which was undergoing maintenance. The roadbed had been ground down, leaving a rather large curb-like bump at the end of the ground section. The normal "BUMP" sign was not present. |
|
|
Upon hitting this rather large bump, one front tire went flat, both front rims were damaged, and both low-beam filaments went out. After changing the flat tire, I was forced to use my high beams for the rest of the slow trip home. |
|
|
I was flashed multiple times, but of course the alternatives were to drive home with no headlights or to wait and pay for a towtruck about 50 miles from the nearest town. I chose to drive. Should I have been punished for this by having my remaining functional headlights shot out? |
