The view from inside a car moving down a dark city street at night reveals a bright yellow line demarcating lanes on the asphalt. The headlights of oncoming vehicles glint sharply, competing with the warm glow of streetlights lining the thoroughfare. Power lines crisscross overhead, adding to the urban tableau. On the roadside, buildings and sporadic greenery are visible, partially illuminated by the artificial light. Occasionally, motorbikes pass along the road.
