Those are DRLs. Not automatic headlights.

Not sure why the government only mandated front-facing DRLs, but hopefully it's beyond obvious now that they have to change the regs.

But, really, fuck DRLs. IMO all cars should have their full lights on at all times when running, and off when not (i.e. turn off the engine and the headlights automatically go off, so no one forgets and leaves them on).

I can’t drive half the time because of people’s headlights blinding me, I would probably have to fully stop driving if all headlights were on all the time, lol

Maybe we could get some legal limits on how bright headlights can be at the same time and solve both problems though

I don't disagree. Ditto those insanely bright digital billboards and store signage.

We have noise ordinances, we need light ordinances as well.

Edit: just drove past a pickup with one of those super-bright LED lightbars across its grill. Those fucking things should be 100% illegal outside of off-road and emergency use.
