When driving through fog, the Road Safety Authority urges you to;
>Slow down and increase the distance from the vehicle in front.
>Use dipped headlights and front and rear fog lights, if fitted.

>Remember to switch off fog lights when visibility improves.
>Keep a sharp lookout for pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.
>Do not blindly follow the vehicle in front – it may leave the road for whatever reason.
>If you have to stop, activate your hazard warning lights
