Has anyone ever actually done this? I can remember being given it as advice when I was learning to drive in the late 80's and I can't think of a single instance in almost 30 years of driving where I've thought 'oh, it's only a motorbike. Crap, no, it's a car with one light out'....

Yes. Me. It was in india and it was terrifying. Out there lights are absolutely no indication of how large whatever the object is. Especially terrifying are the huge lorries with one lamp in the centre of the cab. Close second is two scooters carrying something between them with one of them with a light out. This isn't a one off, this is normal for them.
The point is that every car has two head lamps, motorbikes have one and lorries have two large ones+. Because if you start letting people get away with not following these rules then it all goes to blazes, it's as mad as not driving on the left (or right if you are in a furren country) side of the road..
