6. Fog and Smoke can present a serious
and unexpected hazard, sometimes
greatly reducing visibility in just
seconds. Many serious Truck pile-ups
have occurred as a result of thick fog
or smoke. Watch for fog to
accumulate in low-lying areas. The
potential hazards of fog and smoke
include reduced visibility, headlight
glare, sudden traffic congestion, and
vehicle stopped on the roadway.
When visibility is severely reduced,
consider parking in a safe place and
waiting for conditions to improve.

7. Strong Wind can create an extreme
hazard for high-profile vehicles, such
as tractor-trailers and recreational
vehicles. High wind are often
associated with severe storms that
can create additional hazards as well.
The weight and configuration of your
vehicle will datermine how it will be
affected by wind. Light, high-profile
vehicle are likely to be affected more
readily than heavier, low-profil
vehicles.
Driving defensively is always
important, but during adverse
weather conditions, it is critical.
