The rear lights of the first are certainly far more dramatic, but otherwise I like the darker landscape: particularly the headlights illuminated road.
If your considering combining the two photos it would be nice to photoshop some more of the stars in. The bright star (satellite or plane?) in the top left is quite distracting within your second shot but the groupings in your first add quite a lot.
Sorry that’s not really a decision between the two but more of a: can I have both?
