Ride Safely With Our Quality Headlight Restoration Work

Poor functioning headlights are a major cause of accidents at night as the visibility down the road, color recognition, depth perception and peripheral vision are compromised after the sunset.

A cloudy headlight lens, in addition, reduces the visibility of the driver further and creates a glare that can distract the other drivers and put their life in danger. The following are some of the observations made by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety:

• One of the leading cause of traffic accidents during night is poor driving visibility
  
• Seven out of every ten cars that are over three years old are found with oxidized headlights
  
• Several people drive around with oxidized headlights and they need to replace them
  
• A standard headlight enable one to see an object 150 feet ahead; whereas, a foggy and discolored headlight reduces the light projection by 75% (37.5 feet) and affects the night vision of a driver by nearly 50% (75 feet), thereby endangering the lives of the driver and the passengers
