[fencepost]

One of the streets I drive on regularly is the dividing line between two towns, and it actually has the new LED bulbs on one side and the older bulbs on the other. Even without the one malfunctioning LED assembly that's strobing, the difference is pretty jarring and rather disturbing. I'd much rather have the older bulbs back, or at least something closer to them in appearance.

I'm not the only one to notice the difference either - I generally have my phone mounted to my driver's-side vent and on with a map, and when I'm driving on the "old bulb" side of the street with the new bulbs shining from behind on the phone, it's much brighter - presumably its light sensor is perceiving the LEDs as being much closer to daylight.
