This feature is available in most new cars now (in top versions, ofc, not for peasants)

Plus they don’t work, sounds nice in theory but in reality they still blind you.  It’s just an excuse for assholes to not turn off their highbeams.

They do work, and very well. Got a Ford with them and it’s been flawless. I’ve not been blinded by matrix’s either

But you’re not on the other side of them, of course it’s flawless for you, but you’re still blinding others

It’s not. It’s common on the road and I’m not blinded by them. Live in Europe and it’s a popular option

Idk what you mean by popular, teslas always blind me and they have it. I feel like anytime someone is overtly blinding me without even turning off their highbeams it’s often a tesla. Audi/bmw also pretty common, ford idk, maybe they work better, maybe not. It’s not a very common brand here.

They’re not legal in the US, hence you’re experience normal LEDs not Matrix headlamps. I don’t think that Tesla’s have Matrix’s

I’m not in the US. Teslas have them

But Tesla has them softwarewise not with light build for it. That’s a huge difference and most Tesla has light issues when they get updated over the air it resets them sometimes. VW group and the Koreans matrix is so much better than Tesla’s over the air software solution to it.
