When every car has LIDAR will they all begin to blind each other?

(Insert old man rant “Why are everyone’s headlights so gosh darn bright these days?!”)

There's already cases in SF where a bunch of Waymos are right next to each other, driving around.

That might very well be the case…I’m sure the IR beams are encoded uniquely per LIDAR but it might still blind them… good food for thought!
