Description of the problem | I have noticed that while driving at night, my headlights are extremely, dangerously dim. I have changed the bulbs, and i can still barely see in front of me without clicking on the high beams. What can be done about this issue? I am so terrified to drive at night, i only go five minutes away from my house if necessary. I'm also afraid i will get a traffic citation for driving with high beams on, but sometimes in my area with poor lighting, i have no other choice. I'm driving at night but depending on the car behind me to give me more light, which isn't good. If there's no traffic behind me, i'm definitely forced to put on the high beams. |
