    Having used both DOT and E code lights in my own cars, I have
    concluded that the DOT pattern is pretty laughable. I have only one
    question for the person or team that outlined the DOT's
    specifications: "Why?!!"

    I am unable to think of any benefits to the DOT design--they are
    inefficient at using the light from the lamp, they glare more to
    oncoming drivers, they suck in low visibility/fog situations... need
    I go on?

    The E code lights, on the other hand, put a nice even spread of light
    over the pavement, they appear to be a great deal brighter with the
    same wattage lamp, the cutoff is sharp and stays out of the eyes of
    an oncoming driver, high beam performance is unbeatable, and the low
    beams work great in fog...
