High beams refer to the main headlights of a car which emit a brighter and wider beam of light. In the automotive industry, they are often known as the "brights" or "full beams". Some of the synonyms used for high beams include "high-intensity lights", "full headlights", "long-range lights", "high-powered beams", or simply "bright lights". These terms help to better describe the function and intensity of the lights and make it easier for drivers to communicate regarding their usage. Moreover, many vehicles now come equipped with automatic high beams, which recognize oncoming traffic and adjust their brightness accordingly, enhancing safety on the roads.
