Add to that the new LED street light which lights my back yard up like a football stadium at night and I keep wondering why I don't just swap all of my gear for a decent motorbike I can ride when it's wet or overcast and the only time I have to worry about trees is when one pops up in front of me in the middle of the road.
For some reason every person in the neighbourhood turns their security and porch lights on from Friday to Sunday nights.

I hear you, and I understand. Quite apart from everyone leaving outside lights on all night, the local watering hole has put in a brand new black print on white illuminated sign which lights up my front yard and half the street. Add that to the local all driving through the adjoining roads with several large driving lights on the front of their 4WD's, and I can understand the urge to take up some other hobby!
