So, no real ideas for this one, I expect it to tank. My last light-streak one was way better. But this was a last-minute entry and none of the other long exposure shots actually used it to enhance the pic, though they were better.
In camera, activated Active-D Lighting on High, and upped sharpening/saturation.
PP: Curves, HSL, Liquify, convert to b/w, then hand-colored with the brush tool...j/k! Just resize, then sharpen. Surprised at how much Sharpen helped, actually.

One of my favorites of the night shots - puts a long exposure to good use; crisp and clean, well balanced in exposure, color, composition. Should do very well.
the stream of cars heading home is very well captured - i just wish the road was leading us a bit higher into the scene - placing the entrance and exit point of the road so that it hits dead center actually gives this image a bit less kinetic feel that it could with a slightly different perspective
