>headlights are TOO BRIGHTwhy dont they make high beams a paid feature? everyone gets bare minimum "DOT standard" high beams and the ultra bright retardbeams are behind a $200/month paywall.
sadly you're just gonna have to wait for enough moms driving 4 kids in their suburban to slam into each other at 150mph+ combined speed to get some legislation passed to ban them above a certain # of lumens
The headlights are all within legal limits. Stop bitching.
>>28886013>US legal limitsNot much of a standard.
>>28885985>why dont they make high beams a paid feature?So you only want rich assholes to have access to ultra highbeams? The same rich assholes that already have no regard for life as long as number go up?
>>28886013As we all know, every law is always perfect exactly as written and they never need to be changed in any way.
>>28885985>>28886144I may have the tism, but these china LED headlights are getting out of hand I've used the M82 tape to avoid blasting LEDs and now my daily has a life saving auto dimming rear view mirror.
>>28885985I honestly don't understand why they even need to be that bright. Most of the country is lit up with street lights anyway. Even when pitch black normal headlights work fine. I was using 9007 halogens at the end of their life with a headlight out while driving through on a 2 lane road in a pitch black forest that was having controlled burns performed so smoke was everywhere while going 60-70 and it was totally fine. I was being blinded by faggots with ultra bright every few minutes
>>28886032>So you only want rich assholes to have access to ultra highbeams?yes because there are less of them.
>>28886013I'm going to explain this very simply
>>28886706I'm glad someone else made the diagram so I don't have to. The people that can't grasp this must live somewhere with no hills and perfect roads.
>>28886706This is kind of stupid. Old school headlights don't have any cutoff and are just as likely to strobe blind you as the other car goes over a bump or a hill. It's just not going to feel as bad due to the warm color temp. Modern headlights on modern vehicles blind you because the lights themselves are mounted so high up. It only gets worse as the other vehicle gets higher or your vehicle gets lower. Don't believe me? Go rent a 5 ton truck and take note of how often headlights blind you compared to your usual low to the ground clownbox.
>>28885985I bought euro lights for my north american car and the difference is stark, it's a lot weaker and I had to really dial in the aim because the pattern was so different
>>28886805yes the epidemic of obese cars putting headlight higher only reinforce the issue because even less variation in the road end up blinding other drivers doesn't change the fact that they are simply way too bright in the first place my country has yearly inspection and pretty much every past 2015 cars get a mark for bad headlight, because even tho they are well adjusted they are still so bright that they fail the test
>>28886144>getting blinded by eye raper 9000 is good actuallyI bet you're one of these niggers who believe paying more for gas is good actually.
>>28886805>and are just as likely to strobe blind you as the other car goes over a bump or a hill.They are also 10-100x weaker
Just intstantly blind them with a 20 watt deep infrared lassr lmai, cameras wont be able to see that you did it.Note: this post is certified nigger tier bullshitting. Do not blind people in retaliation for them being human garbage.
>>28886913>They are also 10-100x weakerThis, modern low beams aren't any dimmer than the high beams, they just have a harsher cutoff
>>28886943What did he mean by this
>>28886943Right, if you blind them they just become a burden on the taxpayer. It's much smarter to kill them
>>28886013No they're not. Anyone can go on Amazon and buy bulbs that far exceed the legal limit, slap them in halogen enclosures, and eye rape everyone.not to mention all the poorly aimed led light bars and fog/driving lights that the cops do nothing about.on top of all that, the legal standard is shit and needs to be changed from a wattage standard to a lumen standard.
>>28887739Every Tesla's headlights are too bright, yet fall under the legal lumens limit.
>>28886706No add kids and dogs to the equation. They already suffer because brake dust from cars is more concentrated at their height.
>>28887259webm related comes into play once again. you can see how even when the high beams are on, the amount of light at the hot spot doesn't even increase. it's literally just a flap that determines whether you blind the shit out of people or not, and if you're unfortunate enough to have this thing approach a crest and blind you, you're fucked.the simplest solution would be to go baguette and make LEDs selective yellow by law. Because yellow might be bright as shit, but it's still comfy to look at at night.
>think my headlights are fucking bright>turn on parking lights at red lights as to not blind the motherfucker in front of me>get pulled over and told headlights must always be kept onmight've been a random check because my car looks like something out of tokyo drift, but whatever
