If you can

Try to live east of where you drive to work, so you don't have the rising sun in your eyes in the morning, the setting sun at night. I'm retired but just came back from running an errand at the wrong time and place. Rush hour traffic! Blinding sun!

I know just what you mean.. I lived West of my work, and one of the worst spots in Spring and Autumn was the brow of a particular hill as the sun comes into view abruptly over it.

A main-line train-driver I know told me he sometimes has the same, on his route between London and the West of England. Driving East from Bristol into the rising sun, West into it setting on the return. (It's roughly 120 miles each way, I think.)
