The Department for Transport does not routinely categorise or record the number of cases where correspondence is received complaining about specific issues.

However, based on a manual review of records, in the 12 months up to 22 April the department has received 69 items of correspondence citing “glare” from road vehicles and 9 items citing “dazzle” from road vehicles.
