You mean like not staring at other aircraft's strobe lights when they're on?
I mean, seriously how in the hell can you be blinded by another aircraft's strobe lights unless you're looking directly AT them?
When I was on the police department, people would complain about those bright white lights we shined into their car to make sure they weren't readying a firearm for our approach during a traffic stop. They'd turn around and stare right into the "takedown lights" -as they were called- and say "I can't see with your lights!"
"Then don't look at them."
