    Related, but are most people unbothered by LED tail lights / brake lights? The flicker drives me nuts.

          Too small to see. You can be paying attention to the road, and those small led blinkers will go unnoticed most of the time.

      If they flicker it’s because the designers/engineers did something wrong. It’s an entirely DC system, so the only way they would flicker it’s if they’re using PWM control for the intensity of the lights. There are better ways to dim LEDs, which don’t introduce flicker.
