As autumn turns to winter and the sun sets at around 6.00pm (just as many drivers are hitting the road to head home of an evening), the risk of being temporarily ‘blinded’ by the dazzle of the sun on the windscreen is particularly high, and is likely to last until British Summer Time (BST) ends on October 27 and the clocks go back.
