It was a miserable night, rain bouncing off the tarmac, swamping every windscreen and rendering the cars in front a mere blur of red tail-lights.
There was a serpent of red tail-lights growing in front.
A pair of red tail-lights glowed in the distance; no sign of any other vehicle.
A police car passed him and he watched it recede, checking it again as the red tail-lights began to fade into the enormous darkness.
He looked up just in time to see the two red tail-lights drop behind the hill.
Naturally, by five o'clock it was raining so hard that you couldn't see more than the blurred red tail-lights of the nearest retreating cab.
Its red tail-lights would disappear round a wall of stone or wink desperately as it fought a downgrade.
The red tail-lights of the truck in front swung wildly.
Weaver had climbed back into the Jeep, and it moved off, its red tail-lights disappearing up the street.
We pulled behind in behind a sea of red tail-lights and stopped.
