I fkn hate highbeams like anyone else...but most of that shit nowadays is on auto dim. Once a certain amount of light is detected...it disables the highbeams. You just cause this to happen way sooner than normal cause you have a mini sun mounted to your front end.
That's not how it's done. You give two quick flashes just to remind them.
Most people aren't being dicks on purpose but forget to dip the beams.
I'm sure it happened to you as well.
