Concave lenses can be used in car headlights to expand the projected light outwards.

Reason: concave (diverging) lenses spread light rays apart. The other options are incorrect: microscopes use converging (convex) lenses to magnify; concave lenses are not mirrors; and laser pointers need converging optics to focus to a point.
