Question Dip the headlights???

I'm generally a courteous driver/rider, and so feel a twinge of guilt when on the "mad-mile", the bit of road between the ML RWY16 THR and the ATC compound, if I don't dip my high-beams when somebody is on final for RWY34.

Common dog tells me that your landing lights (which can fry road-kill and ignite bugs at 30M) are much brighter than my 55/60W, and aren't a problem for me, so you wouldn't even notice mine. Can somebody give me a definitive "Don't worry about it w@nker" to put my mind at rest?
