Personally I think street lighting should be done away with... Every time I've lived in the city, I've wanted to get rid of the #$@#ing street lights that lit my house up at night. And when driving, you're out on the freeway, eyes adjusted to the dark, then get to an interchange and they've got street lamps all over the place making it hard to see anything. Or you're in the city, on a block with street lamps, but the next block doesn't have any, so you can't see the next block, as you're eyes are adjusted for the street lights not your headlights. Not to mention how much harder it is to see headlights, bike lights, etc when
Street lights were a good idea when people walked or rode horses, and the closest thing you had to a flashlight was a hurricane lamp. Now people drive, all vehicles have bright headlamps that can see well ahead, and you can buy a flashlight a thousand times brighter than any portable light source that existed a hundred years ago for $10.
The most energy-saving street lamp is one that doesn't exist....
