Regulation

49 CFR 383.111(a)(12); 49 CFR 392.14; AAMVA CDL Manual (nhcdm.pdf) Section 2.12, p. 2-27, 'Driving in Fog'

Why This Matters

Fog removes the visual cues drivers normally rely on to judge distance and closing speed, which is why the manual's first recommendation is avoidance rather than a driving technique. When driving through fog can't be avoided, the specific combination of low beams/fog lights, 4-way flashers, and not stopping on the roadway is what keeps a stopped or slow-moving commercial vehicle from becoming an invisible hazard to traffic behind it.
