its so frustrating that now that electric cars are getting really good everything else about cars is getting really bad. i dont want a big suv with bright cold white headlights and built in driver monitoring and screens everywhere. please just sell me a 90s family sedan but electric
also can we PLEASE find a better place for curtain airbags than in the pillars??? i would like to be able to see oncoming traffic when going around curves
Thats what moving your head is for :)
Legislate this crap now
What happens when you don’t have regulated standards? That. The color of the light is also important. Brightest doesn’t mean best.
Yep. Higher frequency lights actually inhibit your ability to see details, making driving less safe.
I thought headlights in the US are strictly regulated with archaic standards. European headlights had a more sophisticated auto dimming and direction control, from what i remember.
Some things may be regulated, but others are a free for all where the manufacturer can do whatever sells their car. Otherwise there wouldn’t be so many complaints these days of being blinded by the NOT high beams. And light bars should be illegal on a road, period.
I don’t know about inspections in other states, but in mine (that is reducing what they check starting next year for some reason) they make sure your headlights and brights come on. They don’t do any check for aim or lumen output or anything else.
If you’ve never seen them, Technology Connections on Youtube has had a few videos ranting about how bad the headlight situation is in the US.
driving in a car and meeting the foul lifted truck headlights
i feel like this could be easily mitigated by including proper use of high beams in driver’s ed
