Factory Headlight Alignment

I drove my 2K1 SE for the first time in fog tonight. I noticed that the low beams are pointed to the far right and not in front of the car. I would say that they hit the curb about 50-60 feet in front of me. The high beams are aimed dead center and up high. I'm guessing that this is normal so your low beams don't blind other drivers and you can get a good view of the fog line. Anyway, is this something anyone else has noticed?

The headlights are purposed aimed to the right more so you can see road signs. It's normal.
