Explanation
Driving in fog demands caution and adapting to limited visibility. Using high beams in fog is discouraged because the light reflects off the moisture particles, creating glare that impairs your vision. This glare not only hampers your ability to see the road clearly but also increases the risk of accidents. When driving in fog, use low beams only. Low beam headlights provide sufficient illumination without causing blinding reflections, ensuring a safer driving experience in challenging weather.
