Tell the car companies to put them on their cars. They're the ones you need to talk to, so go to the source. I agree that they don't really do anything, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
While I agree we don't need more laws, stop and think about all the warning labels on power equipment. Not required by law, but required to protect the manufactures from law suits from stupid users, defeating safety features or using in a manner never intended.

back in the day of sealed beam head lights I would date my bulbs when replaced I averaged between two to three years of bulb life.
The other thing I noticed was the number of people that would flash their lights at me to tell me I had mine on!!!
