    I remember reading about how cars in other countries like China, and Europe have LED headlights that will detect where other cars windshields are and turn the LEDs that would shine in that direction off re-actively. But that it was illegal in the US for some reason.

      Yes, you are correct. It’s because of the slow acceptance of new technologies by the NHSTA.

      My 10 year old car has that. Just adaptive headlights.

      USA legalised them only recently - that’s why (“expensive”) European cars in Murikan movies always had the shitty incandescent headlights that in most markets weren’t even available.

              Oh hidy-ho officer, we’ve had a doozy of a day. There we were minding our own business, just doing chores around the house, when kids started killing themselves all over my property.
