Headlights on newer cars will already do that right now. It just uses a simple sensor that dips high beams when it detects oncoming cars. Not just fancy cars either, a Grand Cherokee will do it for example.

Oh, they are cool as hell and I'd love a headlight system like that. The cost of that system though? That would worry me a bit.

I guess BMW knows their target market because at about 2:00 they show it cutting off another car as the road merges into one lane. Also fancy headlight warnings are required to know that attempting to pass a huge truck as it merges is a bad idea.

It's not that fancy, and can be had for probably not much more than the cost of a good rebuild by someone who knows what they're doing these days.

So apparently this is a thing: a stripped down Crown Vic complete with lights, dummy cop, solar panels and a front tow bar insert. Can be wheeled to and fro by one guy and a truck.

Place in construction zone, watch motorists not speeding brake check each other, I guess.
