Yeah depending on the car, automatic high beams either work great or are complete garbage. My previous car was a 2018 Volvo and the auto high beams were great. You could customize their behavior in the settings menu to make them more sensitive and reactive, so in that car I was never blinding people.

My current car is the highest trim level 2022 Subaru Outback, which has auto high beams, but they are pure garbage (from a standpoint of giving a shit about other people, and not wanting to blind them). If someone isn't in a 100% straight line exactly in front of me, they're getting high beams in their face with AHB on. So I have to manually shut them off, but I'm sure a lot of drivers don't do that and are just like "meh".

It’s probably me when I’m using my wife’s Subaru that doesn’t have auto high beams instead of my Land Rover that does.

I forget! I’m sorry Connecticut!
