I am trying to implement Bright Data proxy Residential IPs services into my Python Selenium code that is firing a webpage. Even when that page has a SSL certificate, it is loading in http not https.
I am getting certificate errors in my terminal.

My code:

# from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import *
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
from fake_useragent import UserAgent
import os, sys
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as ChromeService
from seleniumwire import webdriver

delay = 30
custom_wait_time = 5

ua = UserAgent()
host = 'HOST'
port = 'PORT'

username = 'USERNAME'
password = 'PASSWORD'

proxy_url = f'http://{username}:{password}@{host}:{port}'


# set selenium-wire options to use the proxy
seleniumwire_options = {
    "proxy": {
        "http": proxy_url,
        "https": proxy_url
    },
}

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument(f"user-agent={ua.random}")
options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
options.add_argument('--proxy-server=%s' % proxy_url)
options.add_experimental_option("useAutomationExtension", False)
options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])

# initialize the Chrome driver with service, selenium-wire options, and chrome options
driver = webdriver.Chrome(
    service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()),
    seleniumwire_options=seleniumwire_options,
    options=options
)


webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.CHROME['acceptSslCerts']=True

# navigate to the target webpage
driver.get("https://guideuncle.com/")
time.sleep(delay)
# release the resources and close the browser
driver.quit()

Error:

Also, my task manager shows multiple Chrome tasks/windows open even after my window closes, causing my system to hang after a few runs of this code.
