Why are a ton of people driving with their headlights on during the day? (hexbear.net)

I can't be the only one noticing this. At first I thought it was just new cars doing it (faulty automatic lights maybe?) but I see a lot of older cars without auto lights doing it too.

What is this, a new trend? Seems stupid.

EDIT: Turns out that's the safer way to drive and I am the stupid one haha.

It’s objectively safer to have them on during the day, assuming they are properly adjusted.

The problem is cars in the US now come stock with blinding washed out misadjusted poorly designed headlights because if other people are going to blind you, why would you buy a car that doesn’t blind them back?

I fucking hate this country.
