Do you prefer night driving or day driving?
 
I like night driving because of less traffic but it can be hard too see on back roads.

I can see better during the day but traffic can be a pain in the a##. :x

For me, I like driving during the day. I try to avoid night driving as much as possible, too many drunks and critters at night.

during the summer I tend to drive more at night. in the winter I drive more during the day because bad weather tends to hit more at night or it just seems worse then.

When I was OTR, I preferred day driving...I didn't want to miss humorous signs like this one: http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...-popart12s.jpg .... :mrgreen:

I like driving at night, but I usually don't find myself in that position to do so. It just seems more relaxing and I end up completing more miles driving at night than during the day.

However this past weekend, I drove home from ATL late saturday night through early sunday morning just to avoid the Bonnaroo traffic [and succeeded].

Day for me,...too many animals at night :cry: . I also tend to get sleepy when the sun goes down.
Even in my car I try not to drive long distances at night.

most of my driving was at nite 7 pm to 5or6 am. i myself loved those hours. less traffic and you can put the hammer down real good around 1am to 4am. also when i made my stops there were no bosses to bug me. and in bad weather i did not have a bunch of dum dums driving with me because they were in bed.

I like driving during the day time because I sleep the best at night.
