What light should I turn on when driving in foggy weather?
Turn on the fog lamp in the fog, and the light wave of the fog lamp can penetrate the fog more easily and illuminate further. When the fog is heavy, you can turn on the double flashing warning light, because the yellow light has stronger penetration to the fog. Remember not to use the high beam, the light wave of the high beam will be reflected by the fog, just like shining on a white wall.
If necessary, use the horn to remind you. Because it is difficult to see each other clearly in foggy days, when overtaking, turning and meeting pedestrians, you should honk your horn to remind you in time and send out driving signals. To slow down and avoid sudden braking, you must slow down first. In foggy days, the field of vision is not good, and most vehicles drive slowly. If the speed is too fast, it is easy to rear-end the car. At the same time, slowing down the car can also avoid sudden braking. It is not easy to distinguish the distance between cars in foggy days, and it is easy to cause accidents after braking suddenly.
Brief introduction of automobile lighting and fog lamp structure
In addition to the front high beam, low beam, headlights and small lights, the rear running lights and brake lights, there is also a set of anti-fog lights in an inconspicuous place behind the car. Vehicle rear fog lamp refers to a red signal lamp installed at the rear of the vehicle in low visibility environment such as fog, rain or dust, which makes it easy for other road traffic participants behind the vehicle to find, and its luminous intensity is greater than that of the taillight.
It is installed at the position where the front of the car is slightly lower than the headlights, and is used to illuminate the road surface when driving in rainy and foggy weather. Due to the low visibility in foggy days, the driver's sight is limited. Lighting can increase the driving distance, especially the yellow anti-fog lamp has strong light penetration, which can improve the visibility of drivers and surrounding traffic participants, so that oncoming cars and pedestrians can find each other in the distance.
