30 years ago headlights / brights were 1,000 / 1,500 lumens.

20 or so years ago 4,000 / 4,500 lumens.

Currently 6,000 / 6,500 lumens.

Imo need to keep the low beams low, all the way back to 1k.
Also need technology that aids the driver by automatically
going to low beams.

Already exists in many modern vehicles 2015 and later. My pickup truck has it.
