I agree with Ed regarding both car and bike.  I like the feature of the
bike that keeps me from leaving the light on and draining the battery.
I wish my car worked approximately the same way.  

I want to get a big white fairing to augment my headlight and make me
more visible  (a) in peoples mirrors and (b) to cross traffic.
