Low beams & High beams on together?

If you drive with highbeams on with other cars on the road, you need to stop. High beams are not for all the time driving, and shouldn't be used as such.

The lazy people who think its ok to use highbeams once the regular lights burn out instead of spending 4 or 5 bucks to change them are completely inconsiderate and shouldn't be allowed to drive until they learn respect and how to change the bulbs.

Keep your lights clean and you shouldn't have issues.

You haven't driven anywhere with large animals I take it. I drive with my high beams on when ever its safe to do so. With the large deer and moose population and the rural roads/highways I commute on I'd be crushed by now if I didn't use them.
One thing I will rant about though, is the abundant use of HID bulbs in housings designed for halogens around here. Its straight up dangerous.

I drove from Edmonton to Jasper, and then to Saskatoon going back through Edmonton. The population you mention (plus add some sort of 'goat' that can graze on a very steep incline, and others) visible from the road between Edmonton and Jasper was astounding....and probably small potatoes compared to way up your way.
