Turn on your high beam headlights.
|
|
|
Increase your speed to avoid causing an accident.
|

|
Slow down and use your low beam headlights.

Explanation
Driving in fog reduces visibility, making it crucial to adjust driving behavior accordingly. Slowing down allows for better reaction time to any obstacles that may suddenly appear. Using low beam headlights helps illuminate the road without creating glare that can reduce visibility further. If fog is heavy and visibility is severely compromised, pulling off the road and stopping is the safest option until conditions improve.
