1, turn on the fog lights.

Don't use the high beam when driving in foggy days, because the light emitted by the high beam is easily diffused by fog, which will form a vast expanse of whiteness in front of the car, and the driver can't see anything. It is best to turn on the fog light.

Step 2 control the speed

When the visibility is less than 500 meters and more than 200 meters, the speed shall not exceed 80 kilometers per hour; When the visibility is less than 200m and greater than100m, the speed shall not exceed 60km/h; When the visibility is less than 100 meters and more than 50 meters, the speed shall not exceed 40 kilometers per hour; When the visibility is less than 30 meters, the speed should be controlled below 20 kilometers per hour; Generally, when the sight distance is about 10 meter, the speed should be controlled below 5 kilometers per hour.

3. honk the horn often

When two cars meet, honk the horn to remind the opposite car to pay attention, and at the same time turn off the anti-fog lights to avoid dazzling the other side.

4. Keep the distance between cars.

When driving in foggy weather, try to drive in the middle of the road, and don't drive along the side of the road, in case you accidentally fall into the drainage ditch on the side of the road, or collide with people who are temporarily parked on the side of the road waiting for the fog to disperse.

pedestrian

1, step aside

Poor eyesight when walking in foggy weather. Pedestrians should try to pull over and stay away from cars to avoid accidents.

Step 2 look around

Pay attention to the traffic when crossing the road, and don't leave until you are sure it is safe. It is impossible to judge the speed in foggy days, and the driver's sight is also affected. Be sure to observe the environment and make sure it is safe before you go.

3. Be careful and slow down

Don't rush in foggy weather, especially near the bus stop. There are many cars, electric cars and motorcycles, so it is easy to have an accident when you run suddenly and violently.
