About wierdos. When it is getting dark out on the open road and I have to just camp where I am I get way off the road. Like 200 to 300 yards with trees, brush, and a bulge in the ground shielding me from drivers. And I keep the lights low. The tarp tent is dull grey green. And when I do head into the bruch I wait until no traffic is visible in any direction. In KOA and other campgrounds I get as far away from the driveways as possible to keep headlights from waking me or lost cars from driving over me. Camping next to a large log provides shelter from wind and cars. In one town I asked the police about safe camping and they let me set up on their lawn.
