    … but this has got to be a failure of state (legislature & enforcement) on both counts, right?

    Taxpayers should be more demanding of some pubic servants (like politicians, even judges in some cases/countries).
    Maybe bring that French democracy device on the next electrons.

    Just ban high-positioned lights (or high vehicles in general), have them mandatory tested every year for alignment, fine folk with incorrect use of high-beansbeams or fog lights. And, you know, something about guns.

        Taxpayers have a say bcs they are the larger of the two classes & they can just eat them.

        But taxpayers just stay quiet even when issues with overwhelming public support don’t even get a debate.

      The problem with American tax payers is that they have been taught that selfishness is the highest virtue, especially when it comes to their cars. You see it with the high beams, and you see it with the ginormous toddler-killing trucks.
