Drivers hate Teslas at night. Why? Because the cars are in full war mode. Adaptive high beams are a great feature at close range. But at longer distances, they are unfortunately a disaster. The system dims far too late. In this video, I get flashed 4(!) times by the same driver because my car is blinding him. The adaptive high beams even switch off briefly, only to turn back on again shortly after. A human driver would have dimmed the lights from the very beginning. I experience situations like this on almost every drive at night.
Please, @Tesla @teslaeurope @Tesla_AI @aelluswamy @larsmoravy @elonmusk @DirtyTesLa @AIDRIVR @SawyerMerritt Are there any plans or possibilities to fix this?
And one more thing: Here in Germany, it is unusual and somewhat questionable to use high beams within towns and cities. For drivers, the dimming works reasonably well, but pedestrians and cyclists are blinded far too often. It would be helpful to have an option that only enables high beams above a certain speed.
As much as I like adaptive high beams, I also just want to turn them off completely so I can drive in peace without constantly bothering other drivers.
