I've never seen headlights rendered like this before. They look like neon tubes! Lots of detail in the pavement too. Well done. I can almost feel the rumbling of the truck that just passed.

Truly industrial, the modern age!

For some reason, I find my eye drawn to the ghostly truck in the left hand lane, intermittently illuminated by the headlights of overtaking vehicles.

Really captures the motion! Nice shot!

Interesting contrast between the car lights and the slower-moving trails of smoke/vapour from the refinery in the background.
