<P> The projection of light from low - beam headlamps is asymmetrical . The kerbside lamp projects light forwards, while the other headlamp dips the beam down and away from oncoming traffic, so as not to dazzle drivers coming in the opposite direction . In Europe, headlamps approved for use on one side of the road must be adaptable to produce adequate illumination with controlled glare for temporarily driving on the other side of the road . This is done by affixing masking strips or prismatic lenses to a designated part of the lens or by moving all or part of the headlamp optic so all or part of the beam is shifted or the asymmetrical portion is occluded . Some cars have a built in adjustment to adapt the projection mechanically . </P> <P> Of the 193 countries currently recognised by the United Nations, 139 use RHT and 54 use LHT .
