Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Tues. April 7th, 2026

Today’s automotive headlights are brighter than ever, and they definitely make it easier for today’s drivers to navigate pitch-black roads. However, in the darkest of nights, they might work a little too well. Oncoming drivers think they are way too bright, and the mountain of recent complaints back it up. Are you among that growing crowd? What should be done to rectify this issue? Kristy Cameron chats with Dr. Ralph Chou in Hour 3. He is a Professor Emeritus in Optometry and Vision Science at the University of Waterloo, and he is also the editor-in-chief of the Canadian Journal of Optometry. Then, we turn things over to the mighty CFRA Nation, as we tackle today’s Question of the Day.
