I guess I mean we have lighting laws or maybe standard is the proper term for NorthAmerican lighting with various US SAE and Canadian motor vehicle SAE regulations for headlight design /aiming. A company I worked for used to work with headlamp and tail lamp data and had a light testing tunnel.

But you throw in a bulb with the wrong focal length for your cars parabola and you get splayed light in all directions instead of a parallel aimed beam. In Ontario a law governs improper headlight aim, but I have rarely seen anyone get a ticket

People pass on shoulders now and police do fuck all.

Brodozers have wheels extending several inches beyond fenders and police do nothing. People are putting pretty colors on their DRLs and police do nothing. You can even drive around with a bare aluminum licence plate and no one cares. Little point in laws when they aren't enforced.
