I fully agree with this. I always start my road trip at morning 5 am or at Max 6 am. It is safest to drive in the morning when you are highly alert and also full of energy. The only downside here is one needs wake up early and prepare to leave home at day break.

The other benefits are that you reach your destination at or after noon and that is when you would be able to check into hotels /resorts at your destination.
