ArabiaWeather - Decra Corporation for Technical Inspection advises to reduce vehicle speed and increase safety distance when driving in poor visibility conditions due to fog.

And the German institution explained that the correct speed can be set while driving in the fog by a simple rule that states that “the speed of the car is equal to the range of vision”; Where the driver of the car must not exceed the speed of 70 km / h when the range of vision is 70 meters, and when the range of vision is 50 meters, the speed is 50 km / h.

Here, road signs can be useful in measuring these distances. Fog lights should be used in conditions of poor visibility due to fog or rain, but be aware that the sensors sometimes cannot detect fog and therefore do not turn on the running lights automatically.
