The Importance of Fog Lights

Fog lights - your companion in bad weather

Fog lights - your companion in bad weather



A vehicle is required to move at all times and under all conditions. In daytime if there is bright sunshine one can easily move on without using artificial lights. At night or if the sky is overcast the driver has to use headlights to see on the road ahead of him. But if there is thick fog, or heavy rain, or snow, headlights would not suffice. Fog lights are used under such conditions. They are mounted on a car, or truck, or any other vehicle below the headlights. Their beam is directed at a level lower than the low beam headlights and they do not blind the driver coming from the opposite side. They are bright and yellow in color. Halogen lights and LED lights are also used in fog lights as they are much brighter. Nowadays HID (High Intensity Discharge) lights are also used. Some of these lights are purplish in color. Use of fog lights is essential for safe driving when weather is bad.
