Hebei issued a yellow warning signal for heavy fog. What should I pay attention to when traveling in foggy weather?
First, you must use the lights flexibly when traveling in foggy days. There is a very dangerous situation in foggy days, that is, low visibility. In foggy days, the visibility may be only a few meters, and I don't know much about the front and rear car conditions. I can only judge the road conditions by the lights. Therefore, if you want to travel by car in foggy days, the driver must turn on all the fog lights before and after, so that you can see the road clearly and let other vehicles see you at the same time to avoid accidents.
If the fog is heavy, you can also turn on the double flashing lights or high beam lights for warning, because low visibility is easy to cause accidents, so it is very important for other vehicles to observe their own driving routes and dynamics. Vehicle lights are the main tool for communication between drivers. Just like in normal weather, turn signals and brake lights are the main tools for drivers to transmit information. Therefore, when traveling in foggy days, the lights must be used flexibly.
Second: slow down in foggy days. Don't drive at high speed in foggy weather, because visibility is low. If you drive too fast, it is easy to cause danger when the car in front brakes or other circumstances. After all, fog will affect people's sight, so it is very necessary to drive carefully when the road conditions are not clear. So in foggy days, you should slow down as much as possible. If possible, it is recommended to choose public transportation.
Pay attention to the distance between cars in foggy days. If the distance between cars is close at ordinary times, it should be at least doubled in foggy days. And even if all the fog is turned on, the driving speed is already around 30-50 yards, not too fast. If the visibility is extremely low, it is suggested that you can pull over appropriately, don't continue driving, and wait until the fog clears. This is a safer approach.
Third, you should have some common sense of defogging. In foggy days, except for the low visibility outside, there may be a lot of fog on the windshield and rearview mirror due to the large temperature difference between inside and outside the car. If the glass produces fog, it will affect the driver's line of sight, which is very prone to danger. So at this time, you should know how to turn on the vehicle air conditioner and blow away the fog on the front windshield. Because the fogging of glass is mainly caused by temperature difference, it can be eliminated by adjusting the temperature difference, and it is also a good method to open the window. And now all vehicles have the function of blowing windows, which can help blow away the fog from the glass, and this function is also used in cold weather.
