When driving in heavy fog, snow, or rain, which headlights should you use?
Blue car A is centred in its eastbound lane on a two-way road in fog. The car and road edges remain readable. The question image does not identify a headlight choice or explain glare.
Correct answer: Low beams
Why
In thick fog, rain, or snow, always use your low beams. High beams will reflect off the moisture in the air and create a white glare, making it even harder for you to see.
