Can anyone say they use this technique successfully?  Why leave *either* eye
open if you can't see anything ahead because of blinding light???

Personally, I use the "look down to the right side of the road" technique
mentioned by another poster.  This has worked reasonably well for me,
especially if there's a white line there to focus on, but I don't know about
with the HID lights yet.
