I know I’m not the only one who feels like I’m getting visually assaulted everytime I drive at night. It was bad 10 years ago but now, it seems like headlight manufacturers have a deal with insurance companies and optometrists to make the lights as bright as possible. Is this ever going to stop or is there some kind of race in the headlight industry to see who can reproduce the power of the sun first?
AFAIK headlights are supposed to be calibrated and low beams should point downward towards the road.
The problem is people with uncalibrated lights as well as those driving with high beams.
The last thing is that newer cars have sensors. When there are no lights facing you they put high beams automatically and then they lower them when sensing a car ahead. Sometimes the software fucks up and leaves the high beams.
Automated lights last about 2 years before the fucking sensors break and cost thousands to fix. Give me back my stomp switch 😁
Smh, more automated shit to break and be less for people to pay attention to and control…
And your oncoming side is even aimed a few degrees even lower to prevent blinding incoming traffic
