Ever go on a night hike or camping and someone shines a flashlight in your face to see who you are? Of course, it is worse if you have actually adapted to the dark, but still not as bad as seeing a bright light while wearing night vision.

That drove me nuts about "The Last Stand," I would have thought the first thing that bad guys wearing night vision would do would be to shoot out the headlights, but it did not seem to bother them.
