Although this won’t be a problem for oldschool drivers, new ones might find it a bit of a hassle to switch on and off the high beam when driving at night and encountering other traffic.
The Auto Dimming High Beam System on Toyota vehicles comes in help and let the driver focus only at the driving part, by automatically switching the high beam to illuminate more of the road ahead when there is no traffic ahead.

When activated, the system uses a camera sensor and microprocessing unit to monitor the road ahead and spot headlights or taillamps. If it detects an oncoming vehicle closing from less than 800 meters (~2,600 ft) or another vehicle going on the same direction at 600 meters (~1,900 ft), the system will dim the headlights. As soon as there are no more lights ahead, your high beam will be activated again.
