    There are some very edge case scenarios where you’d want it off. Ex: a while back I was sitting in a parking garage and my headlights were shining right into some poor dudes face 0.5 floors below me.

    But I think it mostly comes down to these people are fucking morons and probably shouldn’t be allowed to drive on public roads.

    The issue could be solved with something similar to what ford does with their shift lever. If you turn the car off when it’s in drive and try to get out the car puts itself in park and the shift lever moves into the park position. Just do that with the headlights and snap them back into auto every time you turn the car on.

      For sure. I turn mine off in parking garages. Then you know I turn them back on auto because I’m not a total idiot haha.
