I see that a lot here where I live. Lots of pickups pulling stock trailers,
work trucks with loaded beds, etc. That said, there still seem to be a lot
of drivers that think they don't need to dim their lights until they are
within a certain distance instead of "when the lights of an oncoming vehicle
are visible" as the law states (in Texas, I don't know about other states).
I actually had a Bell County Deputy chase me down after he refused to dim
his brights and I left mine on high after flashing him 3 times. He was a
process server and had stopped to check an address, but after I explained
his rudeness to him he apologized. Most of the other offenders seem to just
ignore my requests. In case you haven't picked up on it yet, this is one of
my pet peeves.

Ken,

Several times I get others that try to "remind me" to dim my lights on my pickup. They are already on low beam. Sometimes if there is enough room I briefly turn them to bright just so they know I am aware, and then turn them back to dim.
I think the newer lights are bright enough, and on a 4 x 4 pickup they are high enough to confuse people about whether the oncoming vehicle has high or low beams on.
