Unwritten rule: light the bed without blinding everyone becomes important at exactly the moment nobody wants to stop and deal with it. Useful bed lighting points down at cargo instead of across a jobsite or into traffic.

The move that saves the day: aim fixtures below eye level.

Yep, learned this one the hard way 😅 Pointing the lights down makes nighttime stops so much easier.

Absolutely! Aiming bed lights below eye level keeps the cargo visible without blinding others. Simple setup, big difference!
