Having spent a few days in Scotland and a weekend in Edale where there are no street lights I found that lighting my way by torch was far better than being blinded in the eyes by very bright high pressure sodium lighting. With a torch you can be selective where you point it, wheras a streetlamp will shed light in all directions and not always light some of the corners. In a low light pollution area I also found that the smaller torches were just as good as a larger ones for finding your way along a street or footpath.
IMHO street lights seem to invite crime as they put everything on show. What can't be seen cannot be stolen! Anyone walking around Scotland will be rendered visible by the essential torch that he/she is carrying, unless they are wearing and using tactical night vision equipment.
So, which would you say is best for where you live or where you holiday?
