Explanation
Reducing speed is the most effective initial response to reduced visibility. When fog, rain, snow, or other adverse weather conditions reduce your ability to see clearly, driving becomes more hazardous. By reducing speed, you can decrease the distance required to stop and maintain better control over your vehicle, thereby reducing the risk of accidents.
