What is happening with Automobile Headlights these days?
|
I drive on the Interstate everyday and there are Bright Pink ones, Flourescent Blue and Headlights brighter than what was once Halogens. Why are all of these headlights legal?

Im pretty sure the pink ones arent, at least where i live, as for the blue and white ones, i don't know, im blinded by them constantly but unfortunatly we cant take them out ourselves, the cops wouldnt like that |

I have a set of auxiliary HID driving lamps mounted on my car. Don't worry about ever being blinded by them for 4 reasons.
1 - they cannot be turned on while I am on low beams.
2 - I only use them on country roads to avoid hitting deer.
3 - they are properly aimed.
4 - I would never use them on the highway. |

Most times they aren't, those people just haven't been caught yet. I hate those bright ones that came out a few years ago. Can't even begin to count the number of times my vision has been temporarily impaired by those lights. |

Yeah, I agree there very distracting. I bet it will take a whole whack of accidents for someone to finally say that they should be illegal |

The blue looking ones that come from the factory are legal but all of the rest that are aftermarket are illegal in most states and yes they cause a big distraction as well. |

What makes you think they are legal? If the vehicle comes from the factory that way, they are legal. If it's added on, it isn't. That's the general rule, and seems to apply in all states. |

The reason that they are legal is because the law only says what the minimum brightness is that the headlights must be; it does not say what the maximum brightness is that they are allowed to be. |

Best answer usually the simplest

Pink ones sound interesting. Maybe you should take off your sunglasses? Headlights were for the most part mainly yellowish(from the factory. Then Bosch lites were whiter and brighter. Aircraft landing lights are even brighter.(but illegal on cars).
The blueish one are suppose to light up the road better(cop cars had them).
Manufacturers are searching for the best headlight for less accidents at night.
Personally, I can't see why. In town, every street is lit up so you could drive home with no headlights and never even notice that they are not on. |

Because their headlights!
Why would they make them illegal when they are still doing what their purpose is. Their not going to make them illegal just because you don't like them. |
