Those headlights are just improperly adjusted. Normal headlights point down, especislly on the driver side. Brights are often bright because they point forward.

Now, if you replace your headlight, for example, or decide to lift your truck, and don't adjust your headlights...well now you've just got your brights on all day long.

    I see this excuse all the time, and yet I'm willing to bet that most people have never changed their lights. These are factory standard vehicles with way too bright headlights

    If those "improperly adjusted" or pointing forward headlights weren't the same height as my eyes, they would not be a problem. Which is my exact point.

    This puts the burden on owners having their headlights properly adjusted. People who can't even be bothered to watch the road or change their oil aren't going to care about their headlights.
