At night, landing on a motorway in the direction of the traffic would be the best bet, IMHO. It's nicely lit, and you'll be doing, oh, about 80 mph (or so) on touchdown - not far off what the other traffic is doing.

Get on the brakes and veer off to the hard shoulder once the speed has come off a bit, and with any luck you'd be OK.
