I am glad, then, that we are agreed it might be a good idea to check your local ordinances before proceeding with a conversion.
As for who was implying what, based on your clarification I am happy to retract my statement that you wrote HID headlights can blind drivers and cause them to crash, and amend it to say that it was the Hella rep you spoke to who implied it.
I hope that clears things up and that there is no offence.
