Confused about auto high beam setting

[sherwin143!]

I'm a bit perplexed by the "Auto High Beam" setting in my car. The translation into Dutch isn't very clear. Should this setting be on or off if you drive on the right side of the road? I initially thought it should be off, but someone else suggested it should be on. Does "on" mean the lights adjust to avoid blinding oncoming traffic (left-side driving), or does it adapt to the fact that I'm driving on the right side of the road?

Auto High Beam just means the car’s lights will handle themselves and dim when they sense other cars, no matter what side of the road you're on. The Dutch translation might make it sound more complicated than it is, but 'on' simply enables the automatic function. It’s handy and usually works great unless you're in an area with lots of reflective signs or confusing light sources. I’d say give it a try 'on' and see if it works well for you!

Have you tried it? The "Auto High Beam" should be on if you drive on the right side. It automatically adjusts to avoid blinding oncoming traffic.

It's amazing that the PS3 has this feature, which is missing from the PS4. I recall being able to change the light settings on my old PlayStation 2. Hopefully, this feature will be added to the PS4 in an upcoming update.
