Night driving requires a lot of patience and concentration. If you are dirving in a highway, it gets more stressful. It is mainly due to the fact that most of the on-coming vehicles do not dip their beams. I have come acrosss lots of instances where heavy vehicles drive with just one headlight.

It is very dangerous to overtake in dark highways at night, because it is very difficult to gauge the speed of an on-coming vehicle.

My personal opinion is that long distance night driving, especially in highways, should be done only if you have enough experience in the same.
