As you have mentioned about high beam, just to add few more things people do to irritate:<br />1. Intimidate by flashing high beam in rear view mirror to get out of the way.<br />2. Push you off the road by coming right in your lane from opposite direction because they could not wait till you pas for overtaking some one in front of them.<br />3. The cars in Europe have their beams angles skewed to the right ( they drive on the right side of the road). This helps the guys in cars coming in opposite direction not get blinded. And ther opposite car light seem mellowed. Why does the Indian govt. not impose this restriction on car manufacturers?Rahul Shravagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034024780163688646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4412384266629658507.post-10858482691278855152013-12-06T17:36:16.991+05:302013-12-06T17:36:16.991+05:30Very rightly said Aruun.
