Question 6052

In dense fog, you must...

  1. drive on the shoulder.
  2. use only the front fog light.
  3. reduce your speed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: reduce your speed.

In dense fog, you can see only a few meters ahead, so you slow down enough to be able to stop within the distance you can see, and stop if necessary. In the image, the road disappears into the fog just beyond the van ahead. Moving onto the shoulder does not protect you because someone may be stopped or walking there.
