I only really see this issue on old vehicles. Most vehicles have lights set to automatically turned on when it gets dark. I very rarely see a new vehicle that doesn't have this enabled and/or daytime running lights. Even newer Honda civics have a feature to automatically turn on high beams when no oncoming traffic at night

That’s not the only setting. I’ve seen many modern cars running around after dark with only DRLs.

In my case, I frequently bump the light knob with my knee as I’m entering or exiting.
