In dense fog, which headlight setting is best?

  1. High beam, to see farther
  2. Parking lights only
  3. Hazard lights only, no headlights
  4. Low beam, because high beam glares back
Show answer

Correct answer: Low beam, because high beam glares back

Light from high beams reflects off fog or snow into your eyes. Low beams cut this glare.
