Headlight auto dimming override?

[Leewx]

Auto headlight dimming works very well on the streets. However driving down narrow winding driveways or country roads the headlight auto dim when I want them to be on high. (No other cars on the road) I think the sensor gets confused by the light reflecting off surrounding bushes and trees. Seems like the only way to manually switch to high beam is turn off auto dimming in the settings. Anyone know if a short cut to temporarily override low beam?

I am annoyed by the same thing. But I dont think there is any other way except turning off the auto high beams.

If you pull the signal stalk towards you it will temporarily activate the high beams (i.e. flash to pass), but it wouldn't be easy to drive that way for long periods of time. You have to hold the stalk in that position to keep the high beams on.

You have better "on" time than me. I can almost NEVER get them to stay on. I think it detects a car before it even sees light and dims.

It's frustrating that this feature works so poorly. For me, the lights dim every time there's a reflective sign within 100 meters of the car., So the high beams are on, off, on, off, on, off so much it makes one dizzy. And even when it sort of works like it's supposed to, it takes a full 3 seconds to return to high beams after an oncoming car has passed. In that time, I've traveled over 80 meters in relative darkness. There's no logical reason why It should take more than >1 second after that car passes to return to high beams. Other manufacturers have had auto hi-beams perfected for well over ten years. Tesla has had 5 years to work on it, but they're not really even close to getting it right.
