I sometimes call them "headlamps", too. (I'm 47.) I don't think I learned it

from anyone; rather, I think I picked it up from written sources. Maybe the

owner's manual or some technical document, but as I think about it, what

seems most likely is the Commonwealth's* study book for the driver's

license.



* Massachusetts is not a State, you know! -- But the texts in question

might equally have been NY State or California.
