I sincerely wish that problem was limited to Teslas.
The worst offenders are pickup trucks that get a 6" lift without readjusting their lights. They end up with everyone around flashing their brights at them, and instead of getting the hint, they just flash their brights right back. Plus a lot of drivers think they need to have their fog lights on just so everyone knows they are bigger or something...
To make matters worse, stock lights tend to be way brighter than necessary, especially for taller vehicles. It's at the point now where 1/10 mornings I end up flipping my rear view and putting a hand in front of my driver's side mirror just so I can see in front of me.
I've had a few instances where an SUV or pickup is stopped behind me at an intersection, lighting up the interior of my car to the point that all my windows become mirrors; and I just have to sit there until they turn their lights all the way off, just so I can see the road in front of me.
We are long overdue for some regulation in headlight brightness/angle regulation. It's become one of the most significant safety risks we have driving, and it should be trivial to fix.
