Fog lights generally refer to car fog lights, which are used to illuminate the road when driving in rainy and foggy weather. Fog lights are generally divided into two types, one is the front fog light and the other is the rear fog light. The front fog light has strong light penetration and can improve the visibility of the driver in front; the rear fog light has weak light penetration. , but the luminous intensity is greater than that of taillights, which can allow people driving behind to spot other vehicles more clearly in foggy days and prevent vehicles from rear-ending.
In addition, front fog lights are generally yellow and rear fog lights are red. These two colors are colors with strong penetrating capabilities. In foggy days, the yellow light can pass through the thick fog and shine forward and downward. This design can prevent the backscattering problem caused by shining on the vehicle in front. The light of the red fog lamp is parallel and not dazzling, which can give the maximum information to the vehicle behind, and will not blur the vision of the driver behind by the direct light.
Under what circumstances are fog lights used?
Fog lights are generally used in rainy and foggy weather. In rainy and foggy weather, fine particles such as rain, fog, and dust permeate the air, reducing the visibility of the environment. In rainy and foggy weather, the driver's vision is obstructed. If the driver does not drive carefully, it is easy to cause a traffic accident because he cannot see the road ahead clearly. At this time, turning on the front and rear fog lights can illuminate the road ahead more clearly in low-visibility road conditions and remind the vehicles behind to find their vehicle's position.
The fog light switch is generally divided into three gears. The 0 gear is off, the 1st gear is to turn on the front fog lights, and the 2nd gear is to turn on the rear fog lights. When the 1st gear is turned on, the front fog lights work, and when the 2nd gear is turned on, the front and rear fog lights work together. After understanding how to use fog lights, you can correctly control the fog light position to ensure driving safety. However, no matter how effective the fog lights are, in rainy and foggy weather, drivers should slow down and the maximum speed should not exceed 30km/h. Only by driving carefully can we ensure that traffic safety hazards are minimized.
