Why should we give priority to turning on the fog lights instead of turning on the double flashers when encountering foggy weather? Brother Miao will analyze for you what kind of impact double flash and fog lights will have on the driver behind you in rainy and foggy weather? When encountering heavy fog, if there is a red light on the rear of the car in front, it means that the vehicle in front has its fog lights on. The fog lights of this car are obvious when viewed from behind.
The car next to me had double flashes on but no fog lights. Although the double flash lights were dynamic, flashing one after another, the wavelength of the red light of the fog lights was greater than the wavelength of the double flash yellow light. Therefore, the penetrating ability of fog lights is stronger than that of double flashlights.
When encountering bad weather, because the fog lights behind the car are red lights and the double flashing lights are yellow, the brightness of the fog lights is much brighter than the double flashing lights. It can be clearly seen from the picture that under the same conditions, the penetrating ability of fog lights is much stronger than that of double flash. This is why in very bad weather, fog lights should be turned on first.
The second reason is that on the highway, traffic accidents are prone to occur in rainy and foggy weather, but cars involved in traffic accidents will flash double flashes. When encountering bad weather, everyone will drive slower. If all the driving vehicles and the vehicles involved in the accident have double flashers, and the visibility is not good, if the driver behind is slightly distracted while driving. , it may not be possible to distinguish which cars are parked and which are driving, which can easily cause unnecessary rear-end collisions.
In actual operation, if the weather is not particularly severe, it is recommended that you reserve the power of double flashing for vehicles that need emergency treatment or temporary parking. As for a driving car, with its fog lights on, drivers behind it can actually see it.
We must not hold on to the concept that the more lights, the safer. The misuse of lights may lead to additional traffic accidents. Therefore, Brother Miao also hopes that through this rainy and foggy weather, drivers can dispel their doubts and use lights correctly and rationally to reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.
