Question 8155

Visibility is poor due to fog. What should you do?

  1. Leave more safe following distance from the vehicle ahead.
  2. Drive at the minimum speed for the road.
  3. Keep your foot on the brake pedal at all times.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Leave more safe following distance from the vehicle ahead.

In fog, you can barely see the rear lights of the vehicle ahead, and you cannot see the obstacles in front of it. Leave more distance so you have time to react if it brakes. Keeping your foot on the brake is no substitute for that distance.
