This is cool because I like lights.

The end of the article states:
While BMW has sold some laser-headlighted BMW i8s in Germany, here in the United States such technology is banned by outdated federal vehicle lighting standards. So write your member of congress, and let ‘em know: We want some frickin’ lasers!
And the best comment is:
Yeah, we want those $6,800-replacement-cost headlamp assemblies, and we want them NOW!!!
True. Though we've enjoyed some serious headlight improvement over the decades. Old sealed beams to halogens. Composite headlights. Projectors. HIDs. LEDs. And now this.
