  3. If you must drive in foggy conditions, keep the following safety tips in mind: Slow down and allow extra time to reach your destination. Make your vehicle visible to others both ahead of you and behind you by using your low-beam headlights since this means your taillights will also be on.

  4. Dec 22, 2023 · To help motorists navigate safely through foggy conditions, Caltrans offers these driving tips: Reduce your speed to ensure a safe stopping distance. Drive with headlights on low beam. Never drive with only the parking lights or fog lights on and avoid using high beams in fog.

    • Slow down. Reduce your speed dramatically. Because of lowered visibility, you need more time to be aware of what's going on around you and time to react to it.
    • Use low beams or fog lights. Make sure your headlights are turned on because they will increase the visibility on the low end of the road. One important note, never use high beams when driving through fog, the light will be reflected back at you, making it more difficult to see.
    • Keep an eye on the right side of the road. In very foggy conditions it can be difficult to see where the road goes. Slow down and focus on the right edge of the road.
    • Don't stop on the roadway. This safety tip is good to follow in any driving conditions, but if you have to stop for any reason, you should always pull over to the right, off of the road.
  5. Take extra caution when on the road or avoid driving if possible. A Freezing Fog Advisory is issued by your local National Weather Service office when fog develops and surface temperatures are at or below freezing.
