Dense fog conditions have developed across Delaware, creating hazardous driving conditions with reduced visibility throughout the First State.
The Delaware Department of Transportation reports that fog of different intensities has been spotted in communities statewide, prompting officials to issue a safety advisory for drivers.
Transportation authorities are encouraging all motorists to exercise extreme caution when behind the wheel during these weather conditions. Reduced visibility from fog can significantly impact a driver’s ability to see other vehicles, road signs, and potential hazards.
Drivers should reduce their speed, increase following distance, and use low-beam headlights when navigating through foggy conditions. High-beam headlights can actually make visibility worse by reflecting off the fog.
