Which lights should you use when you are driving in fog?

Using lower (dim) headlights in fog conditions is the recommended practice because these lights minimize the amount of light reflected back at you by the water droplets in the fog. High beam headlights can create a glare and reduce visibility because the light bounces off the fog, making it harder to see what lies ahead. Standard headlights can also reflect off the fog, but lower (dim) headlights are designed to illuminate the road immediately in front of you without causing excessive glare. Fog lights, while helpful in certain situations, are typically used in conjunction with lower headlights, so relying solely on one option may not provide adequate visibility. Therefore, utilizing lower (dim) headlights ensures safer navigation through foggy conditions.
