"If a dense fog advisory is issued for your area, it means that widespread dense fog has developed and visibility often drops to just a quarter-mile or less. These conditions can make driving challenging, so exercise extreme caution on the road, and if possible, consider delaying your trip. If driving in fog becomes unavoidable, remember these safety tips: Moderate your speed:"
"Visibility matters: Ensure your vehicle is visible to others by using low-beam headlights, which automatically activate your taillights. Utilize fog lights if your vehicle is equipped with them. Avoid high-beams: Refrain from using high-beam headlights, as they create glare that impairs your visibility on the road. Keep a safe distance: Maintain a significant following distance to account for abrupt stops or shifts in traffic patterns."
Dense fog will affect Carquinez Strait and Delta, Central and Southern Sacramento Valley, and Northern San Joaquin Valley from 11 p.m. Saturday until noon Sunday, reducing visibility to one quarter mile or less. Low visibility can make driving hazardous. Drivers should slow down, use headlights, and leave extra distance ahead. Use low-beams or fog lights if equipped and avoid high-beams because they create glare. Stay in lane by following road markings and maintain a significant following distance. If visibility approaches zero, turn on hazard lights and pull into a safe location or as far off the road as possible, then deactivate all lights except hazard flashers.
