Unless I'm wrong?

This is the review that made me want to try them...

I can tell you that the pattern is about the same as my old lights. As the review said, these specific lights definitely get right in front of you bright, but not so much in the distance. Definitely what I'm experiencing (though the distance is about the same as old lighting, closer up definitely brighter). I haven't had anybody flash their lights at me so far (only had them for maybe a week and it's not a big area). People around here aren't shy about letting you know, either. My wife's factory xB lights on low beams gets people flicking their headlights at me just about any time I drive at night. All that said, I can definitely see your concern as LEDs are very directional. Time will tell for me with my headlights.
