A1Difficulty 3/5

You ride a motorcycle in dense fog. In addition to dipped headlights, which lighting is appropriate if fitted?

Correct answer

The front and rear fog lights, if the motorcycle is equipped with them

Front and rear fog lights. Front fog lights help in reduced visibility; the rear fog light is used in especially adverse conditions such as the dense fog specified here. Switch it off when those conditions improve because it can dazzle. Main beam is not always the best choice in fog. Motorcycles must also use dipped headlights during daylight.
