Tips for Safe Driving During Fog Season

In winter, fog is common, especially during our drives to work.

Here are some tips for a safe journey:

  • Drive Slowly and Patiently: In fog, visibility is reduced. Drive extra slowly and be patient. Pay attention to others on the road. Watch out for obstacles and maintain a safe distance from the car in front to avoid sudden braking.
  • Use Appropriate Lights: Avoid using high beam headlights as fog reflects light. Instead, use fog lights or low beams for better visibility.

  • Clear Windshield with Warm A/C: Use the warm setting on your car's air conditioning to clear mist on the windshield.
  • Avoid Overtaking: Refrain from overtaking other vehicles in foggy weather. Stick to a steady pace, and prioritize caution over speed for a safer journey.
  • Plan for Extra Time: Leave a bit earlier in the morning and allow extra travel time. It's safer to be a little late than to risk not reaching your destination at all.

Safe travels!
