It says that you may select lower or upper, but not both.

I once had a huge raised truck behind me blinding me with his spot lights. And in front of me I had a jackass with what looked like a mirror strapped as his rearwindshield. one guys lights hit his mirror and into my eyes.
i quickly left and was wondering how it felt to be the raised truck behind the mirror. taste of his own medicine

bump... so will officers pull over drivers using their high beams improperly? they really need to start pulling people over in Richmond - too many people just turn them on because "i can see better" (the excuse my mom made before I flamed at her)

They showed this on the news when they started doing drinking and driving counterattack's last Christmas:
A guy got pulled over and the officer was teaching him how to turn off his highbeams.
It just happened that the camera crew was there interviewing an officer and they panned to the guy who happened to be pulled over at the time and the officer was explaining how the high beams are turned on and off...haha.

This morning at around 8am, some d-bag in an E92 3-series at 41st and W. Boulevard had his high beams on. At 8am in the morning, wtf?!?!
Especially shitty is when it's raining, when even more people turn on their high beams and all that does is shine into my eyes and reflect off the rain on my winshield making it even harder to see!

You should just turn on your fog lights so that other people can see you and you may see slightly better.

On the topic of headlights, I saw an officer driving a police cruiser in Richmond last Thursday, without any lights on. It was raining, and in the evening. He had his DRL on, but from behind, it was hard to see him unless he was braking.
