  1. HOW CAN YOU DRIVE A CAR SAFELY IN FOGGY CLIMATE?

  2. Depending on weather conditions, fog is essentially a cloud sitting at ground level. 

  3. Generally, fog contains liquid water droplets, but when it is very cold out, icy fog can form.

  4. This fog is even more dangerous than water-based fog because it can lead to ice accumulation on the road.

  5. If you are traveling any significant distance, you might drive into a wall of fog unexpectedly.

  6. Therefore, it is imperative to follow the best driving practices when driving through fog.

  7. SLOW DOWN Whenever the weather is poor, your first reaction should be to slow down.

  8. Heavy fog can make it difficult or impossible to tell what is happening down the road in front of you.

  9. Check your speedometer frequently, as fog impairs the ability to accurately judge travel speed.

  10. FOG LIGHTS When your vehicle is equipped with fog lights, turn them on immediately.

  11. They will make your vehicle easier for other drivers to see.

  12. Don’t forget the rear fog lights(if present), to make yourself more visible to drivers coming up behind you.

  13. KEEP RIGHT It can be difficult to see the lane markings in the fog, but try to focus on the right-side line rather than the center-line.

  14. This keeps you further away from the struggling vehicles traveling in the opposite direction.

  15. Defensive driving is always important, but it becomes even more critical during times of poor visibility.

  16. PULL OVER When the fog is very thick and visibility is poor, stop on the side of caution by pulling over.

  17. Do not slam on your brakes as the driver behind you needs time to stop his car.

  18. Try to navigate to a parking lot or other safe space.

  19. REMEMBER Driving in fog is never fun, and it is best to avoid it when possible.

  20. If you must travel, though, follow the tips above to remain as safe as you can.
