    Unfortunately it is not just Telsa and Mercedes, I went out and surveyed this in a parking lot after an event a while back, while people were filtering out and getting in their cars to leave. It’s many makes, Toyota, Kia, Chevy, Dodge etc.

      How did you do that?

      If the lights an equipped with auto-levelling feature, it will beam them down and up again upon every start for 2 reasons:

      • to test, the levelling mechanism isn’t broken
      • to prove during inspection, that this feature is not broken.
