In my experience, while Tesla is a prime offender, it isn’t only Teslas headlight that are too bright. Honda Prologues are another specific model that blinds me all the time.
While we’re at it, I’m convinced auto-headlights and the general dumbing down of drivers mean a lot of people are simply driving around with their brights on all the time. Don’t know how to fix that one though.
Back when I still used Nextdoor, I once posted a picture of the regular (green) headlight dash icon and the blue high beam icon, and spelled out what they’re used for and that people should know the difference. I got flooded with hearts or whatever the Nextdoor equivalent of upvotes is, I’m sure all from people who already knew and were also frustrated. There are definitely some people who are either ignorant or oblivious; I wonder if any of them saw my post and learned something? Can’t say the problem got any better.

I found it weird there are about 20,000 vehicles of concern for models that sold millions. I wonder what happened, how are those relative few different?
That being said, they are really bright but now that we finally have the adaptive beams enabled, it seems to make a huge difference

That’s a lot of work/cost to just find out whether something needs to be done.
Almost makes you want each part to report an id ……. Until you think about vendor locks and surveillance
