I'm not sure if you're highway patrol or an officer who sees much roadtime, but I'll ask anyways. What priority are misaligned headlights / highbeams / aftermarket headlights that are improperly installed? I also live in Texas, and I dislike driving after dusk due to not being able to see the road in front of me due to these aftermarket lights / high-beams behind me.

Do you pull people over when you see these? I believe it can't be legal to drive around in the city on lighted roads with your high-beams on, but do you know if this is enforced at all?

Thanks for keeping Texas safe!

Thanks for your reply. It got me wondering if this was part of an inspection requirement, and the answer is - it was, until it was removed in the 1990's.

Since there's nothing keeping us from installing HIDs in stock housings, and aiming them towards the sky, what safety tips would you have for concerned citizens besides don't drive at night?
