Because you need to use a parallel circuit. With a series circuit, the car headlights will become dim. This is because, the electricity in a series circuit goes only one way and this means that when there are 2 bulbs, the charges of electricity have to use half of their energy for each bulb.

Are series circuit's used in car headlights?

No, series circuits are not used in car headlights, because if one headlight were to go out the other would also, because the one light would make an incomplete circuit. Headlights are wired as parallel circuits because when one headlight goes out, the other is unaffected and stays as bright as it was before the other light went out.
