I share your pain. Many drivers seem not to know how to select lower beam but more likely just don't seem to give a dram! There seems to be a pervasive "you can't make me" attitude in our society these days. PLUS why do drivers feel they need these piercing high intensity lights in our well lit city streets? I see many driving with no lights at all because the streets are so well lit they don't need them to see their way. Headlights in most cities function simply so others can see you coming.

Lots of "other" things here.
Lots of people get tired of "fixing" their yellowed lenses.
But ebay will sell them 80 to 120 watt LED equivalents for cheap!
And you can get them in rainbow colors! FREEDOM!
AND I was in Long beach recently, in our Ford.
I went and got gas, made it three blocks, and got pulled over.
Kops wait there. Lotsa folks have "auto" headlights- it gets dark, they turn on.
Long Beach has halogen street lights, and the cars thinks it's daylight.
Plus THEY are yellow- its a bit disturbing to drive there-
and then that street light just in front of you just turned red.
Yowza!
OH! This is still LA,CA. The kop says I'll write a misdemeanor- no points!
It also means "no contest".
You are not allowed to contest these tickets- just pay the money citizen!
You still want to contest it- no problem! Sign here ...
Now you owe the ticket, plus egregious court costs, and watch your language!
