Serious question for epileptics. Are those failed LED flashing street lights an issue? I feel like they must be. Even to me they can be disorientating at night when the one flashing lamp on the exit ramp is the main light source.

I'm not epilectic but I'm always super annoyed when someone walks their bicycle and the led front light keeps pulsing in bright rapid flashes because of the dynamo

God yes. Primo headache material. Seems so lazy too, to design a light that goes full blast as soon as there is enough voltage from the dynamo. Stick a capacitor in there for chrissakes!
