Like turbo5spd, I had this problem w/correct bulbs in my 9-5 until I replaced the suspension. I'm fairly certain the problem was either the rear springs or shocks. I'd guess shocks, first, since they are notorious for needing replacement.
It became painfully obvious that the problem was mine once I followed a friend home who was blinded as my car floated around. Something is probably keeping your headlights too high; or they may just be out of adjustment. Mine were spot on for adjustment when checked, but the adjustment isn't checked when the car is moving!
I've not had one flash since then, and have gone to ecodes and higher wattage high beams.
