You need to dim driving lights to oncoming traffic, otherwise you'll blind them. Fog lights, different story....

they are only supposed to be used when you are pretty much alone on the road.....driving ligths dont mean that literally...

I only use mine when I'm alone on a dark road, way too bright for everyday use unless you're trying to warm up dinner by shining the lights on the food:-)

Aim them down, or you might look into the possibility of switching the bulbs.
