The new projector and LED beams work well in a flat plane. Real roads aren’t perfectly flat so the projectors are crazy bright when the vehicle is on a slight rise.

Yea, I don't count high beams when the car is coming over a rise and is angled up relative to me.

That said, lots of cars, including newer Toyotas and Teslas, seem to have lights angled upwards more than others, or the drivers actually use high beams thoughtlessly.

yep, I'm constantly having to guess if people are flashing their headlights at me or if they hit a tiny bump

A lot of 18 wheeler lights flicker, It’s an intentional safety feature

Or when it's a lifted truck, if their headlights aren't adjusted (which they never are) then they are pointing directly at the cars in front of them.

Real roads are perfectly flat, but only in places like Utah where everything is flat.

Everything flat...Utah...?

Have you been to Zion, Bryce, Salt Lake, Flaming Gorge, Kanab?

My great grandma lived in Provo and that's my memory of Utah.

It’s a little silly to say something about an entire state if you’ve only seen one part of it right?

Unless you’re from vermont ofc. Everything else in America is flat land in their minds lol
