It doesn’t seem to be limited to tall cars for me. I’m constantly blinded by little sedans and I drive a mid-sized pickup truck. I think they’re luxury cars with the power of 10,000 suns captured inside their headlights. Also, I drive a mid-sized pickup truck with aftermarket LED bulbs, but I don’t blind passenger cars. I had my wife pass me on the road in her sedan after I adjusted them to be sure I wasn’t being an asshole.
They probably have their brights on and just don’t care. I’m seeing a lot of that from luxury car drivers. They’ve basically entered an arms race where tall cars blind them, so they leave their brights on. An easy way to tell is too look for their cutoff line. If you don’t see a cutoff on the road then they’re an ass with their brights on
Another issue is the “auto brights” that never seem to work as advertised.
The auto brights in my wife’s Honda work pretty great! But we’ve rented a couple cars that shut off way too late. I guess it depends on the manufacturer and model.

Agreed. My friend’s Lexus is too eager to shut off the brights and turns off from a street light a mile away. The American brands seem to lag
They work great in my Hyundai too.
Only problem is I have to turn on the brights to cancel the auto brights.
That’s not a great design decision.
