    saving a few bucks on the bulbs I guess. No real reason not to have them, owning a car is already expensive, the added cost from headlight bulbs being replaced more frequently is a rounding error.

    Really the main reason is gonna be that that’s how things are done and so there is no political will to change it.

      I think I’ve had to change bulb once every ten years and I live somewhere they’re turned on during the day. It’s probably the cheapest part of car ownership.
