well they cant quite do that - 95% streetlighting is paid for by your local Council. You can make a formal complaint to your council and on your behalf they make the request to the electrical provider. in your request you can quote the requirements of the Australian standard outdoor lighting code AS 4282 .
putting the cutoff on the light - they have to do that because you requested it - the downside is that if they wish to keep to code the streetlighting they may install a second light
- that could be a downside.
if you dont get satisfaction there then you can make a complaint through your state ombudsman and follow that channel.
failing that, sinker and a sling shot
