   • Leave plenty of distance between your car and the one in front of you. Decreased visibility means longer braking times, so that added space is your friend.
   • Take advantage of your windshield wipers and defrosters. Moisture and ice on your windshield can create glare, which can make it even more difficult to see.
   • Speaking of visibility: ditch your car’s high beams. Low beams are actually better for driving in fog! If you don’t think your current headlights are powerful enough in low beam mode, consider a headlight replacement.
   • Resist the common urge to use the lights of any vehicles in front of you as a guide. This can actually cause you to focus too much on the narrow patch of landscape in front of you – causing you to miss other things!

If weather conditions affect driving conditions, you might consider pulling over and turning on your emergency flashers until conditions improve.
