Absolutely NOT! While failure to dim high beams within 500ft of oncoming traffic is a violation in most states, failure to use high beams is a violation in some states. Driving around with high beams allowed (and sometimes required) until you meet oncoming traffic.

And none of that answers the question about the cities in which it is illegal to use high beams or where in Florida code it states high beam use in residential areas is not allowed.
