1. A method for modulating vehicle light output intensity, comprising:
- detecting incoming light from a second vehicle utilizing a plurality of light sensors operatively connected to a first vehicle, wherein the plurality of light sensors are distributed throughout the front, left front, left rear, right front, and right rear sides of the first vehicle;
measuring the incoming light intensity; and
decreasing an intensity of light output by one or more lights of the first vehicle based at least in part on a measurement of the incoming light intensity from the second vehicle.
