In many instances, driving at night is not out of the ordinary and in some cases, depending upon the Principal’s schedule, preferences or proclivities, is the norm. And while fatigue is always a concern when it comes to driving at night, there are other risks that the driver must consider and account for. In fact, while a combination of safety and security risks tends to make vehicle movements the highest risk endeavor a Principal and his or her protectors will engage in on any given day, movements which take place at night may present even greater risks than those which take place during daylight hours.
“The More Technology a Car has, the More Hackable it is…”

The question also points us to what might best be referred to as the pillars of driving.

The Very First Question Every Newcomer Ought to be Asking
Having been involved in the EP profession in one form or another for quite some time now, it astounds me how often newcomers are asking the same questions over and over again, particularly on social media outlets. Now, there is a very real possibility – and some strong indications – that a fair amount of what’s happening in terms of the same basic questions being asked repeatedly is, in fact, actually a high tech form of “astro turfing”.
