Every version of this I've heard, this is the correct answer.

Although, in literal terms, I suppose that a newly-repaved street might qualify; a street that's just gotten a new load of asphalt on it literally is 'pitch' black.

Either way, though, the original poster's profile seems to show he hasn't been back on since he posted the riddle. And therefore, pursuant to Mattyd's original rules laying down a twelve-hour deadline, I'm calling this one closed. I'll leave a riddle of my own for anyone who wants to try it.

Riddle:
"One day as I was walking along I met a man in the rain. He nodded his head and drew his hat and in this riddle I've said his name."
What is the name?
"No trees were harmed in the production of this post. However, several electrons were severely inconvenienced."

Kumquat.

pygmalion was right about "it's by day" as I didn't say the "street" is pitch black, but just that the "road" is pitch black. and sorry that i forgot to mention the headlights being off.

Anyways, back to the latest riddle.... there are as far as i think three names in there...
