Story needs a good editor. It doesn’t even name the university. Huge hole.

Indeed. As I’ve said, critics pile on the Times at every opportunity, but here’s only one journalistic entity in the world that has the resources to tackle something like this. And they do it. Regularly.

the problem isn't LED lights, though, it's DOT having far less strict standards for beam pattern & glare than Europe (whose regulations are followed by much of the rest of the world). The allowed height of the lamps and the allowed height of the beam is much lower in the ECE standard.
