A headlamp is a lamp attached to the front of a vehicle to light the road ahead. Headlight is a synonym for headlamp. Headlamp performance has steadily improved throughout the automobile age, spurred by the great disparity between daytime and nighttime traffic fatalities: the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states that nearly half of all traffic-related fatalities occur in the dark, despite only 25% of traffic travelling during darkness. Additionally automotive night vision systems may improve viewability without requiring brighter headlamps.
