Driving at night increases the risk of an accident
E.L. Doctorow said, “You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.” Most people can, but night time driving is more dangerous than during daylight hours, simply because of reduced visibility. Add to it drivers who are drunk or drugged, or distracted, and things become very dangerous. Nightime driving increases the chance of an accident. You might have seen cars that are missing a working head or tail light, or no lights at all, their drivers seemingly oblivious. It is against the rules of the road to drive without adequate lighting at night because this kind of negligence can bring on accidents with catastrophic results. If you have been hit by a driver who was not operating a safe vehicle, or hit you because of negligence, your life has been impacted far beyond the initial hit.
