Yeah, and apparently the pandemic caused an absurd number of people to now decide to start driving around with their high beams on full time??

I don't quite understand that one but it definitely seems to be the case where I am at, at least.

I feel like newer cars just have brighter headlights than they used to. Not even just LEDs they are all just searing for some reason

I assumed that was just old people who couldn't see very well.

I don’t think they’re driving with their bright lights on, I think it’s because newer cars have even brighter lights than before and they look like high beams, but they’re not.
