    Headlight check needs to be bundled with emissions check. High beams need to be automatically disabled when oncoming headlights are detected by default.

      They kind of are… Toyota has that. Except it does nothing for pedestrians, cross traffic, same-direction traffic, etc.

      They definitely inspect headlight alignment in places where cars have to be regularly inspected to be roadworthy. The police will also write you up for improper headlight setup.
