Explanation
Fog can significantly reduce visibility, making it difficult to see other vehicles, pedestrians, and traffic signals. It is best to avoid driving in fog, but if you must, you should do so cautiously and at reduced speeds. You should also turn on your low-beam headlights and increase your following distance to be prepared to stop within the space you can see ahead.
