Nightime or Daytime Driving?

[LexTer]

Ako naman kapag long drive tulad papuntang Baguio or sa south, gusto ko madaling araw kase less ang traffic saka mas maaga makakarating sa destination.

Dito naman sa manila, gusto ko umaga kase malabo rin ang mata ko saka medyo madilim ang tint ng car ko. (hehehehe) Saka mas safe mag drive para sa akin sa umaga kase mas nakikita mo kung meron umaaligid sayo or sumusunod...

ako din. hirap lang sa gabi pag mahina headlight mo. takaw aksidente.

daytime driving for me kapag ordinary working day, madilim kasi yung tint ko para sa tindi ng araw.

pero kapag long trips to our province gusto ko yung nightime na umagang umaga like 4 or 5am para no traffic at malamig hehe

kapag byahe sa province.. daytime mas gusto ko, kasi hirap ako mag overtake sa gabi tsaka dami truck na mahahaba! hehehe!

kung dito lang naman sa metro manila, kahit ano ok sa akin.. :D

daytime... mas confident ako mag drive because of greater road visibility... hirap ako sa gabi... medyo malabo na rin mata ko eh... madali na kong masilaw.

Daytime driving is the safest part of the day to drive for me. Kahit gitgitan at makiput ang kalye kayang kaya i-maneuver ang sasakyan. Mas madaling pumina sa araw. I usually travel to work at noontime so maluwag ang kalye. I drive home at nighttime but I more cautious driving by then. Me refractive error na rin kasi ang mata ko, eh.

I'm more relax during night time

During long trips, I prefer night time driving medyo relax not much traffic at di nakaka-stress.

It is also cooler so that means no AC, engine runs cooler and less stop and go = tipid sa gas.

Kapag long trip or especially kung dadaan sa zigzag road (ex Kennon or Marcos HW) i prefer at night kasi mas safe. Kita mo kasi yung headlight kung may kasalubong lalo na sa blind curves. Mas confident din ang overtake kapag alam mo madilim which means walang kasalubong.

i prefer night driving lalo na sa madaming curves.atleast kita agad kung may kasalubong and isa pa, dina kailangan ng ac

the statistics all prove that nighttime driving is always more dangerous than daytime driving. besides the obvious visibility issues, there are the other problems like driver fatigue, drunkenness, headlight glare, etc. i think i read a study that also showed that your risk grew exponentially for long night time trips.

regarding headlights as a visibility aid, keep in mind that not all road hazards have headlights. the last time i drove at nighttime in the Philippines, i almost fell into a huge (unmarked!!) hole that was being excavated on the road :twak:
