traveling at night

   I try to avoid night driving at all costs.  After killing 31 deer with my 94 F-150 (and that doesn't include the ones I have hit and maimed) I really dislike night driving.  With the exception of only a couple times, all deer hits/kills have been either during the night or early morning like 4:30 - 6:00 am.  This goes for hitting all the other things like coons, skunks, porcupines, oppossum, ect.  Hey, it'a a jungle out there, especially at night.  I am like Mr. Carter:  visibility is a good thing!

	We don't plan to do it, but over the years we have done it a few times, accidents, emergencies, changes of plans.. I turn on my under body lights and rock and roll on down the highway.

	+1 - Not normally part of my travel plan. But could see it if necessary, I like visible travel and plan accordingly. To each their own.

	Not part of our "plan", but we've been on the road at dusk and dawn. I can imagine situations where we might be on the road after dark, but not unless forced.

	So last night we were coming back from a concert. It was about 10:30 PM and we passed a R-Pod just west of Alamogordo, NM. This made me wonder how many tow at night? I try not to for a number of reasons but I am curious.
