You'll sec - and be seen - belter. Don't use your high beams. The light will bounce off the water droplets that make up the fog and reflect back at you. Use your defogger. In high humidity, even a light buildup of moisture on the inside of the glass will cut down on your already limited visibility. Run your windshield wipers and washer occasionally. Moisture will build up on the outside of the glass and what seems to be a fog will actually be moisture on the outside of your windshield. Treat dense fog as. an emergency. Try to find a place to pull off the road. Of course you want to respect another's property. But you might need to put something between you and the moving vehicles - space, trees, telephone poles, a private driveway, anything that removes you from other traffic. If visibility is near zero, and you must stop but arc unsure whether you are away from the road, turn your lights on, start your hazard warning flashers, and sound your horn when you hear approaching traffic. Pass other vehicles in a fog only if you can sec far enough ahead to pass safely. Even then, be prepared to delay your pass if you suspect the fog is worse ahead. If other vehicles try to pass you, make it easy for them. For more information I can be reached at Cowan Pontiac-Buick 905-623-3396.
