Explanation
Despite there being less traffic, driving at night is significantly more dangerous than driving during the day. Sharply reduced vision, glare from oncoming headlights, animals crossing the road, fatigue, and eye strain all contribute to the increased risk. In addition, impaired drivers are more likely to be on the road at night. The most important rule for driving safely at night is: Drive slower and never outrun your headlights.
