In such a situation, it becomes important that if you are driving in the fog, then avoid making some mistakes, because even a small mistake can lead to an accident. So let us know what things should be kept in mind in fog. You can learn about this in the next slides...
Do not make these mistakes in fog:-
No hurry
Many people leave with their car and hurry, due to which they can become victims of an accident. One should not hurry at all in fog. Drive comfortably, look back and forth before turning the car and if vision is not clear, you can park the car at a dhaba or hotel and stay there.
Take care of the speed limit
When there is fog, visibility becomes extremely low and in some places even reaches zero. In such a situation, do not make the mistake of driving fast. Walk as slowly as possible, so that any unpleasant incident can be avoided.
Watch out for high beams
While driving in fog, you should take care not to drive on high beam. If you do this, it causes light to diffuse through the fog and may cause difficulty in driving.
Use of indicator light
If you are driving on a highway or any other road amid fog, then you can drive with both the indicators of the vehicle lit or put a radium strip on the vehicle, or even drive with other lights on, etc. With this, your vehicle will be visible to the vehicle coming from behind, due to which any incident can be avoided.
