There have been many circumstances driving on the 401 in the Hwy 8 - Hespeler stretch that I have felt tense and uneasy driving at night, specifically because visibility is occasionally horrible there with no lighting whatsoever. Merging feels dangerous. I can't say the same on some other areas on the 401 where there are also no lights, but I'm not really sure why that is - maybe light pollution from the city is making it harder to see the unlit highway?
In rain as well. If it's pouring out, stretches of highways that are unlit have 0 visibility, and I can never see the lane markers, and have to drastically reduce my speed / get in the right lane. Not so with lit highways.
Have you been checked for night vision issues?
