There are several tens of millions of reasons for this ~ among them are the elderly for whom any increase in the level of glare is an unmitigated disaster

I don't know how many times I've seen a car coming down the road at me in the middle of the day with headlights so bright I get a headache just looking at them, and it turns out to be granny gumms hunched over the steering wheel squinting through the windshield with her beady little eyes. I can't for the life of me figure out how bright headlights in the middle of the day helps the elderly see any better.

And don't forget that next Monday is FLAG DAY!

According to my calendar on that day, there will be a "National Pause for the Pledge of Allegiance, 7pm. EDT.". (Calendar supplied by my congressman, Ralph Hall R-Rockwall, Texas).

Think of it as a safety precaution for other drivers. If you see a car with it's brights on during the day, assume it's an elderly driver and get out of the way.
