What a Dense Fog Advisory Means
An advisory indicates widespread dense fog has formed, reducing visibility to a quarter-mile or less, which creates hazardous travel conditions.
Safety Tips for Driving in Fog
- Slow down and allow extra time to reach your destination safely.
- Use low-beam headlights to increase vehicle visibility; these also activate your taillights.
- Use fog lights if your vehicle has them.
- Avoid high-beam lights as they cause glare and reduce visibility.
- Maintain a larger distance from the vehicle ahead to prepare for sudden stops.
- Follow road lane markings to stay in the correct lane.
- If visibility drops near zero, turn on hazard lights and find a safe place like a parking lot to stop.
Taking precautions during dense fog helps ensure safer travel for all drivers.
