Art's Post just above this one,is in line with what I'm thinking. I think the Low beam filament is cracked but with a bump in the road it can make contact with the other side of the filament and 'weld' itself together. Turn off the lights, filament cools and shrinks breaking the weld. Then when it cools filament shrinks and breaks the weld.

Before swapping Headlights side to side, I'd turn the lights on and tap that bulb with my knuckles to see if you get life.
