Default Best time of the day for a DRIVE!

Are you a morning person or an evening person?

My favourite time for a drive is about 6:00 in the morning - roads are empty and no-one much about.

I like late night/early morning drives, between 10pm and 2am. Not that i do it all that often, but there's nothing around and it's quite a serene and enjoyable experience. After sitting in traffic jams going to work and back all week, it's the perfect antidote.

I just love driving, doesnt matter what time of day. I love being on my own with one of my dogs strapped to the front seat (saftey first!) and listening to my music and seeing where i end up. Its great for blowing out the cobwebs.

I used to do that - just jump in the car and go - when it gets late you do a B&B and then go and drive some more. It's fun. I particularly like curvey roads with bends and adverse camber - you get to work the car hard without breaking any speed limits.

Best road for a fun drive is the coastal road between Hythe and Rye - the bends are awesome - with open fields either site in most places and some really tight hairpin corners. I also enjoyed snake pass in the Peak Districk but the huge drop to one side made you keep your focus.

Midnight to 3 AM - Roads are clear and you see other cars a mile off cos they have to have their lights on.

Christmas Day is a brilliant day for a drive - around 12:00 - 2:00pm.
