My guess is that this is a problem for Alaska in particular. For a large portion of the year, the sun stays at a low angle for a large portion of the day. That way glare isn't just a problem for half an hour or so at sunrise and sunset, it's a problem all day long. Being in a bright snowy environment doesn't help.FireEMSPolice said:I thought they were flat black so the sun doesnt blind the driver.
