Explanation
Driving at night is more hazardous and more difficult than daytime driving. The lack of natural light makes it harder to see the road ahead, other vehicles, pedestrians, and obstacles.

To reduce the risks of night driving, drivers should use their headlights, drive slower, and increase their following distance, especially in areas that are not well-lit or familiar.
