Well, I think those used to be the rule in France, or at least they were extremely common. Nowadays you still see them there, but much less often. It's really, really easy to completely overlook an oncoming car with yellow lights - somehow they don't stand out from all the other random lights that are on at night. I can't remember how many times I suddenly gasped at the last second and thought : "Damn ! I didn't even see that one coming !". The other big problem with them : people might think you're French....
Yeah I think in 92 when they joined the EU they had to conform to the EU lighting standards.
I kinda like how the LeMans race cars have a amber and a white headlight.
