Maintain the alignment of cart headlights. I don't think we would need striping, reflectors, etc. if the headlight issue was resolved.
Haven't seen cart with low or high beams and most are made to shine straight ahead. how about the add on led lights. They blind everybody facing them? How about People driving around with fog light on when there no fog. how about trucks jacked up with lift kits and big tires and the headlights blinding everyone in front of them. I avoid driving at night if possible, give me migraine pretty quick! O don't forget the person driving with their high beams on. Reason I mentioned this really hard to see in the diamond lanes from cars or carts.

I need to get me one of them freight train lights mount is right in the center. That way it will sweep from side to side lighting up area like day light. As long as I can see that's all that counts

Now that I think about it lighting does need some regulation
