We'd get pulled over here if we rode around with main (high) beam on all the time. It would be seen as a danger to other road users. And I can see the point. If the cager was dazzled, they wouldn't be looking were they were going.... and so more of a danger than normal.
I know how annoying brights lights are in the mirrors (and the low sun we have at this time of year) I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
