Those bright lights are a real pain for other drivers esp. when they're on an SUV. I drive a small car and those lights on an oncoming truck or SUV shine right into my eyes and nearly blind me. I'm not entirely sure why people need those lights in city or suburban driving anyway, with all the street lights. They might be a help on a dark country road, esp. if you feel the need to drive fast. But I drove for years on rural roads with regular headlights and survived quite nicely.
