In fog, which lighting action is recommended to improve visibility?

• A. Turn on high beam headlights
• B. Use appropriate lights
• C. Turn off all lights
• D. Use dashboard lights only

Answer: (B)

In fog, the aim is to improve visibility for you and others by using the right lights. High beam headlights bounce off the fog and create glare, making it harder to see. The best approach is to use appropriate lights—typically low beam headlights, and if equipped, fog lights. These lights are aimed lower and help illuminate the road surface without reflecting back into your eyes, so you can see the lane markings and edges while other drivers can still see you. Keeping lights off or using only dashboard lights won’t help you stay visible or see the road. So, use appropriate lights.
