People and high-beams on their cars

[zantor64]

There is this thing that people use when they drive at night; they use headlights so that they can see. Most cars have this very useful feature in headlights called brights, or high-beams. These often allow the driver to see twice as far as normal and objects with reflective surfaces stand out with great clarity and contrast against the dark

While people around here are courteous enough to dim their high beams, there's no getting around those nasty Xenon lights you see on high-end luxury cars, especially BMWs. Those things are as bright as the sun and put out way more light than anyone needs. >_

If you're talking about the annoyingly bright blue ones, those are halogens. Xenon bulbs are too bright to pass inspection.

No, those are xenons. Halogen lamps are standard headlamps. :)
