Every car that blinds me is some extremely new 2020-2024 year car. I get blinded by every third car on the road. The amount of people that get aftermarket headlights installed is very much not a third of all car owners. I can get behind poorly aimed by the dealer but you are wildly overestimating the number of people who have aftermarket lights.

Are they all trucks? If not, maybe you need to get your eyes checked if they're all blinding you that badly. Or do they just not aim headlights properly in the US anymore? In EU, low beams are supposed to have a dipped beam.

Your last question, no they do not aim them correctly. Cost savings.

Yikes. Wouldn't pass inspection in my country even.

Car inspections sound like a pipe dream here in the states. I think its a great idea personally.

Most states here don't even have car inspections lol
