How to Follow a Vehicle When Driving in Foggy Weather?

[McJulian]

When following a vehicle in foggy weather, pay close attention to the dynamics of the vehicle ahead, strictly control your speed, and appropriately increase the longitudinal safety distance from the vehicle in front to avoid getting too close. Mistaking the tail lights of a stationary vehicle ahead for those of a moving one could lead to a rear-end collision due to close following. Precautions for driving in foggy weather are as follows: 1. Maintain a lower speed: When driving in fog, strictly adhere to the speed limits set by traffic rules and avoid speeding. The thicker the fog, the shorter the visibility distance, and the lower your speed should be. 2. Choose the outer lane on two-lane roads and the middle lane on three-lane roads: Visibility is already poor in foggy conditions, so when driving, prefer the middle lane on a one-way three-lane road rather than the sides. 3. Avoid overtaking blindly: If you notice a vehicle stopped on the right side ahead, do not overtake blindly, as it might be waiting for oncoming traffic to pass. When passing a parked vehicle on the roadside, ensure it has no intention to start moving and that there is no oncoming traffic before sounding the horn appropriately and passing slowly from the left.
