Per notbob:
But yes, age is a factor. I'm in my late 60s and do not like to drive
at night. I can and I will, but I know the chances of being in an
accident are greater, so try and make necessary trips in daylight.
IOW, know yer limitations. Duh.
With my situation, it's way beyond anything I can consciously compensate
for. You just would not want to be anywhere nearby when/if I were
foolish enough to try driving at night.
Cannot cite, but somewhere I read that commercial airplane accidents
when landing were 10x more frequent after dark.
