Fog lights, as the name suggests, are light signals used in rainy and foggy weather. Its main feature is strong penetration in fog. In low visibility weather, it is easy for vehicles or pedestrians to notice early, thereby effectively preventing accidents.
The role and usage of fog lights
1. Fog lights are installed on the front and rear of the car to illuminate the road when driving in rainy and foggy weather and remind the front and rear cars to keep the distance between cars. "When driving in fog, fog lights must be turned on first." The visibility of vehicle headlights is generally only within 30 to 50 meters, while the visibility of fog lights is about 100 meters. "If the fog is too thick and the visibility is too low, it needs to be used together with the double flash to make it easier for other vehicles to find themselves.
2. "Don't turn on the high beam when driving in fog!" Many car owners are prone to make this "low-level mistake", thinking that the high beam has strong penetrating power. Since the vision is not good in fog, then fog lights should be equipped with high beams. Come with some "strong medicine". Unexpectedly, the high beams will reflect diffusely due to the fog, forming a white fog in front of the car, and the driver can see nothing.
When driving from a foggy section to a densely foggy section, try not to step on a sudden brake, but choose a continuous point brake. "Pushing on the brake can make the brake lights have a continuous flashing effect, not only to avoid rear-end collisions, but also to better remind the following cars."
3. Don't use fog lights when driving without fog at night, because the front fog lights have no hood and the rear fog lights have high power, which will create dazzling light for the driving ahead and the drivers following behind, which will affect driving safety.
