    This is the most important part:

    Of note is that it’s not just LED lights themselves, but also taller vehicles and misaligned headlights, all of which makes it important that the angle of your car’s headlights is proper. You want to see the road in front of you, after all, not illuminate every house in the nearest settlement two klicks away.

    Although, I feel like they phrased this part poorly

    it’s not just LED lights themselves

    because it’s 100% due to improper installation and/or using the wrong bulbs for your particular headlight assemblies. LED bulbs do have a different throw pattern, so it takes a lot more adjustment than people think. And each bulb from the different manufacturers have different throw patterns, you have to make sure you have bulbs that have a throw pattern that works for your car.

    Wearing a yellow glasses is a partial solution.

    How corrupted are regulators? Are they blind?

    Remember xenon headlight? They actually looked cool and had large lenses.

      The white light is also less effective for nighttime visibility. It’s like how TVs in the store are set to max brightness. It’s not better, it’s just blinding.
