Explanation
If a dust storm doesn't allow you to proceed safely, it is dangerous to continue driving through it. You should immediately slow down and get off the road as soon as possible. Once you have stopped, turn the headlights off and remove your foot from the brake pedal. Stay in the vehicle with your seat belts buckled until the storm has passed.
