How can I drive safely?
Slow down
Poor vision on foggy days, too fast is likely to be unable to react in time when the car in front of you is found, which is easy to cause bad results, so slowing down is the first priority.
Maintain distance and drive at low speeds
When the visibility is less than 200 meters and more than 100 meters, the speed shall not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and the distance with the car shall be greater than 100 meters; when the visibility is less than 100 meters and greater than 50 meters, the speed shall not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and the distance with the car shall be greater than 50 meters; when the visibility is less than 50 meters, the speed shall not exceed 20 kilometers per hour;

Frequent and gentle braking
Driving frequently and gently on the brakes in foggy days, one is to control the speed, and the other is to turn on the taillights when braking, which can remind the vehicles behind to pay attention to maintaining the distance. When driving in the fog area, generally do not slam or quickly loosen the throttle, let alone emergency braking and sharply hit the steering wheel. If you think that you really need to reduce the speed, first slowly relax the throttle, and then lightly press the brake several times in a row to achieve the purpose of controlling the speed and preventing the occurrence of rear-end accidents.
Pay attention to driving directions
Driving on foggy days should be driven as close to the middle of the road as possible, do not drive along the side of the road, in order to prevent scratching, touching, bumping into the protective fence, to avoid collisions with emergency parked vehicles on the side of the road.
Avoid wiping while walking in the fog
When encountering foggy days, the windshield surface condensed by water vapor will cause blurred vision, at this time, do not take out cotton cloth, towel, and wipe the fog on the glass while driving. Because a small action can lead to great disaster. The air conditioner in the car should be used to adjust the temperature in the car and eliminate the fog on the windshield so as not to affect the driving line of sight.
Use lights correctly
When the visibility is less than 200 meters and more than 100 meters, turn on the low beam, fog light, contour light and front and rear position lights; when the visibility is less than 100 meters, in addition to opening the low beam, fog light, outline light and front and rear position lights, you must also open the hazard alarm flash.
Do a good job of defogging in the car
Under normal circumstances, once there is fog in the outside world, fog is generated in the car, so it is best to open the rear window defogging, rearview mirror defogging function when driving, and the air outlet is facing the forward windshield, using all methods to remove the fog in the car.
Make good use of the horn
Driving on foggy days to press the horn helps other vehicles to judge their own position, when other vehicles honk, they should respond in time to prompt their driving position. Special attention: when meeting the car, turn off the fog lights, so as not to cause a sense of blindness to the other party, when passing through residential areas, schools and other places, do not use the horn frequently, so as not to disturb the people.
Special note: If a traffic accident occurs on a foggy day, please open the double flash, place a triangle warning sign behind the vehicle, and evacuate the personnel to a safe area and call the police to avoid secondary accidents.
