one more point i would like to add in favor of night time driving is that the no of smaller vehicles (cars/jeeps) is less as compared to while day.This means mostly heavier vehicles are present trucks/buses,that way overtaking becomes a little easier because most of them drive at sedate speeds of 60-70.That way you spend less time on the wrong side of the road.Only once a while you might meet some speed demon.Rest of the time all you have to do is cruise along in top gear.
