Default Headlights question

Hi,

Does your right headlight move to the right as much as your left headlight move to the left?
When I start my 400h, I can see both lights move to the side equally, but when I drive and turn to the right, the right headlight does not move to the right nearly as far as the left headlight move to the left.

Normal?

Tnx.

Yes, normal ... I believe the left light turns up to 15 degrees, while the right light turns up to 5 degrees. I believe the rationale is that when you are curving the left it's illuminating up the road rather than when turning right it'd be illuminating up more of the shoulder/ditch of the road. Not sure I agree with the rationale of lighting up the road being the most important feature b/c deer seem to come from the ditches as well
