Explanation
The best advice for driving in heavy fog or dust is to consider postponing your trip until conditions improve. When visibility is severely reduced, driving can become extremely dangerous. By postponing your journey, you avoid the risks associated with poor visibility. If you must drive, reduce your speed, use low-beam headlights, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles.
