The N4 does not have lighting but has very little traffic at night and is pretty much straight for long stretches. He might have used the odd car headlight to give him some orientation.
The tricky thing is that the highway has quite a lot of bridges which, also, do not have lights on them!!
I wonder, if 'god' was watching over the aircraft - as the owner states - why did he let it be stolen in the first place? Unless he'd checked the pilots licence first.
