It has led to serious accidents involving not only casualties, but also fatalities. It\u2019s even riskier to drive in the fog on highways. Visibility gets decreased and figuring out the distance from the cars ahead and behind becomes very dodgy. You must follow the 6 safety measures listed below to drive safe in Fog.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vg9FDZxERgs?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Reduce your speed<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One thing to remember is that fog makes it difficult to see objects by adding its white color to everything around. This makes vivid colors look very dull and has a tendency to make objects look blended in the atmosphere. It makes it difficult for the drivers to judge the distance between his\/her car, the stationary cars or the cars passing by. In short, the rule number 1 is to reduce speed so that you have enough time to judge distances correctly in fog.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18309\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-18309\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog-1024x686.jpg\" alt=\"Reduce speed in Fog- sign\" width=\"600\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/reduce-speed-in-fog.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Turn on parking lights during Daytime<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do not turn off the parking lights in fog at day time.

Using high beam lights in fog can be harmful for the driver. These lights can increase the visibility in normal conditions but in fog, they reflect back the fog to the screen halting the visibility completely.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/low-beam-headlights-night-time.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18306\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-18306\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/low-beam-headlights-night-time.jpg\" alt=\"Low beam headlights- night time\" width=\"600\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/low-beam-headlights-night-time.jpg 807w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/low-beam-headlights-night-time-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/low-beam-headlights-night-time-768x325.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Turn on the fog lights<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Driving in fog can be enjoyable if safety measures are taken. Always turn on the fog lights. Turning on the front fog lights helps to make visibility from the front. If they are at back, they can guide others to locate your car from the back.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/switch-on-fog-lights.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18310\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-18310\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/switch-on-fog-lights.jpg\" alt=\"Switch on fog lights\" width=\"600\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/switch-on-fog-lights.jpg 420w, https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/switch-on-fog-lights-300x190.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Using the Pavement line on the right side as a guide<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Try to drive on the very right lane on the line painted white.
