If you want to prevent the light from the road glare to enter the sunglasses, the glasses have to be polarized so that horizontal light does not pass through. Therefore, the glasses should be polarized in a vertical plane.

Polarized in a horzontal plane. Most sunglass manufacturers that advertise polaroid lenses actualy sell the lenes that polarize in a horizontal plane to reduce glare from the sun reflecting from the road and cars - reflected from above - verticle - polarize it horizontally i.e. only let in horizontal ( filter it abit) light.
Of course this is never complete but it does work.
