It really depends on your locality. If you live in a place where you need to deal with a lot of gang activity, shootouts, and all, then any time of day would be dangerous. However, given ordinary circumstances and typical roads, the worst time to drive is between midnight and 3 AM. Statistics show that fatal accidents are more likely to happen more than ten-fold during this span of time as opposed to driving from 6 AM to 6 PM.

As for the most dangerous time, it’s usually from 2-3 AM on Sunday morning. It’s because Saturday night is party night and bars usually close at 2-3 AM. The more likely the road’s inhabited by drunk drivers. Accident fatality boosts up to more than twenty-fold during this hour.
