Foggy Conditions: Which Headlights Should You Use?

Updated:
FRESNO, Calif. (KMPH) -

The California Department of Motor Vehicles would like to remind everyone to use low beam headlights when driving in the fog.

Officials say you should not use high beam headlights because they can reflect back and cause glare.

The CHP offers these tips to help you stay safe on the road:

-- Turn off radio and cell phone

-- Slow down

-- Roll down your window and listen for traffic

Officers say if you are involved in a fog-related accident, the best thing you can do is pull as far off the road as possible, turn off the lights and keep your foot off the brake pedal.
