As quoted from another forum I visit.
"Audi is set to introduce matrix LED headlights on their 2015 A8 model. These lights continuously change their beam pattern to adapt to road conditions and traffic to reduce glare for oncoming drivers, for cars you’re following, and to put the most light possible down the road at any given moment. But guess what. Our great fed. govt. in their infinite wisdom will not approve the lights for the U.S. because our headlight regulations, which date back to 1968, can’t account for headlights that have more than two modes, i.e., “low beam” and “high beam.” These headlights represent a giant leap forward in night time driving safety, but because of outdated regulations the technology can’t be used here."
