It’s a Vermont problem for sure. When driving home to Vermont, it’s almost endearing at this point to return home and be greeted by high beams in the face and in the rear view mirror. I think Vermonters are oblivious and simply are not as practiced at functioning around other people. Most of us who grew up in densely populated areas learned early to turn our high beams off before blinding other drivers, how to navigate four-way stops, and not to block aisles at the grocery store while carrying on conversations! While I’m at it, it’s also much more common to have to wait, sometimes several minutes, for a cashier to finish up a conversation with another shopper or coworker- that will almost never happen in a city where people are mindful to keep things moving.

Edit: also, Toyotas have dim high-beam indicators and seem to represent more than the fair share of this problem, in my experience.
