I wasn't serious about the ticket part. However, not going to lie, I think it's a bit douchey. Like SS stated, cars don't come from the factory that way. I have no reason why, but I'm sure there is a reasonable one. I know one thing I can't stand, though, is when I approach a car at night you can't easily tell if they flipped off their brights or not. If its a newer car, when they dim their lights you can tell they are on low beams, because you can see their fogs.On a somewhat related note: what is with d-bags that drive around with their brights on, to hide a low beam being out? How about FIXING the low beam that is out, idiots! That **** drives me nuts.
And if they are trying to not get a ticket. You won't. A cop may pull you over, but generally they will do so to see if you are drunk. They will just tell you to get it replaced. Besides, if you don't dim your lights when you approach a cop, they may pull you over, anyway.
