New study shows most headlights are unacceptable

  • 8 years ago
An Insurance Institute for Highway Safety study released Wednesday shows only one of 31 midsize cars offers a headlight option with a “good” rating.
IIHS found many of the industry’s luxury midsize cars perform just as poorly as mainstream models.
Visibility issues create safety hazards, ranging from excess glare to inadequate illumination.
The study also revealed U.S. auto-safety regulators haven’t changed headlight regulations for a half century.
