    Id rather blame it on beam shape which in your cars are symmetrical and designed to shine straight onto opposing drivers face. Here I immediately see at night that incoming traffic is a car with LEDs because they blind me less - you must come here to believe me I guess, but check what beam shape is by law mandated in the EU. And it is much much easier to control the beam shape exactly like you want it with multi-LED headlights.

      Led or not, having the wrong light adjustment (height, beam shape, etc) will fail your inspection in most EU countries.

      But this led trope is a regular online… I imagine in the US they are doing all kinds of crazy shit with high power leds, because freedom or something. Damn EU gob’mint, preventing people from blinding me!
