If you park you van infront of a wall and turn on the low beams, you will
notice that there is a very sharp horizontal cut-off to the left and to the
right there is a very sharp 30 degree above the horizontal cut off.  The
"bend" is where the horizontal cut off turns into the horizonal + 30 deg
cut off.  You see it when you do it.
