Hi All,
I have been caravanning for 8 years now, but this last weekend was the first time I found myself towing in the dark. Motorways and main roads were fine, but I found myself unusually nervous and hesitant as the approach to our site involved some distance on unlit narrowish, but still two way (just), roads. I realised that I usually rely on frequent checks in the nearside wing mirror to reassure myself that the caravan is clear of the hedge etc when I am passing other largeish vehicles on such roads, but in the dark I couldn't see anything! (It didn't help that it was p...ing with rain at the time!)
Any tips or suggestions from those who have towed regularly in such conditions?
Cheers
Paul
