The more I think on this, the more I wonder if it’s truly unpopular “here,” but it certainly is in public.

Headlights should be no more than 2 feet off the ground. Yes, your SUV will look dumb. No, you won’t be able to see as far. But you also won’t be blinding everyone.

And no, adjusting angles does not solve this for monster trucks in the US.

    Ive started angling my mirrors away from my face to combat this and then changing them back when i get some distance. Bonus points if you can angle them back at the offending driver.

      This is the way. The feeling when Jimbob the Confederate Cousinfucker’s lifted COMPENSATORMOBILE suddenly falls back due to his own misaligned and blinding headlights…

      My 13 year old car has auto dimming rear and side views, but they don’t help with head on traffic. :(

        My old audi had them and i miss them so much and i cant even get an aftermarket version. Fucking sucks and they should be stock.
