Basically everything that is wrong with US lighting can be fixed by: adding mounting height to declination correlation. dynamic leveling for very high flux headilghts [front & rear sensors], automatic leveling for medium flux lights, and manual remote leveling [dial with 0-1-2-3, etc] for weak-sauce low flux lights.
That's actually not quite true. The UN working groups on vehicle lighting regulations (GTB and GRE) are finally having the overdue discussion and doing the overdue research on the real effects on seeing and glare of headlamp leveling systems and lens cleaning systems.
"Overdue" because those measures were originally adopted on a "gentleman's agreement" basis back when the industry wanted to introduce HID headlamps. There was concern that they would cause unacceptable levels of glare (note: unacceptable, not necessarily unsafe), so to get HIDs onto the road an arbitrary threshold of 2000 lumens was selected; cars equipped with low beam light source(s) with total reference luminous flux more than 2000 lumens had to come equipped with static levelling and lens cleaning systems. Cars with less than 2000 lumens worth of low beam light source(s) had to come with manual (driver adjustable) leveling. At the time there was no research supporting any of this. Not the concept, not the implementation...nothing. It was purely political bargaining chips: the industry threw these "sounds like glare control" measures at the regulators, and the regulators said "OK", and everyone said they'd study the matter further.
Basing regulations for glare control on the luminous flux coming from the light source is...sorry, it's just stupid. Other drivers can't see how much light is coming from the bulb, they can only see how much light from the headlamp (i.e., the beam pattern) is reaching their eyes. It's very easy and extremely common to have a headlamp with a low-flux light source produce much more glare than a headlamp with a high-flux light source. Moreover, the leveling and cleaning systems cost money, and the cleaning systems take up a giant amount of space and add ill-afforded mass (in countries where a vehicle's CO2 emissions are an important factor in its marketability, taxation, etc).
The industry and consumers alike are working around the cost barriers these systems put up: the industry by producing 25w HID systems with rated luminous flux of exactly 2000 lumens (no leveling or cleaning system needed) and consumers by not opting for HID headlamp systems at new-vehicle purchase (too expensive).
Some very reputable European researchers are doing good quality research on just exactly how much effect these systems have on the real levels of actual glare from real cars to real drivers on real roads, and their findings are pretty predictable: Manual levellers are useless; nobody uses them. Static automatic levelling has no significant effect on glare because most vehicles are never rear-loaded to the degree that the headlamps' aim is significantly raised (that situation may be somewhat different in the US with heavily-loaded pickups and SUVs). Lens cleaning systems have some significant effect, but not a whole lot -- it's more a driver convenience/comfort factor (which is not to dismiss it lightly, but the data is showing a lens cleaning system isn't a "silver bullet" for glare).
Now, dynamic automatic levelling has a lot more promise, but it has to be a good-working system, and not all of them are. There's also some good American research (from UMTRI or LRC, I forget which at the moment) showing pretty dramatically that dynamic levelling works well to counteract beam aim changes during brake dive and acceleration squat.
Things would get much better if all vehicles had good dynamic aim systems on them -- and even better still if they all had the beam aim attainment system Porsche demonstrated not long ago, a camera-driven system that looks at the headlight beams and adjusts/corrects their basic vertical aim, rather than just maintaining whatever aim setting a (usually careless) human being set.
Eventually this will all be a problem of the past, as the "matrix beam" type fully adaptive systems do away with the concept of basic headlight aim, but that won't happen for a very long time.
Finally: No, even if we get to make a wish and have all cars come with dynamic levelling and self-aim, there's a fair amount more that needs fixing with US lighting. Still far too much allowance for bad/inadequate low and high beam headlamp performance. Still too low a cap on high beam intensity. Still no requirement for side visibility of turn signals. Still too many rear turn signal colors allowed. Still no effective regulation of fog lamps. Etc.
