Careful with this plan. This is also how mega companies get into multivehicle wrecks. Some one follows closely enough to see tail lights. The problem is, they are closer than they realize and SMACK.

I functioned just fine for years without that, and there will never be day when I start flying on instruments. Leave that mess to airplanes. -
If the fog is so thick I can’t see tail lights at a safe following distance, I’m slowing to a crawl or parking it. -
TravR1 Thanks this.

If you are going significantly slower than everyone else in the fog, then yes, you are the hazard.
-
And if your so tired that you run into a fladhing lights... Your doing it wrong.
Please now go and get scissors and cut up your cdl.
The guy driving for the conditiond with flashers on is doing it right...
The guy that crashed into him... Is doing it wrong!!!! And should be sent to prison.Last edited: Mar 13, 2019

Glare shmare, Lots of bad advice here.
Every highway has a minimum speed limit, some are posted.
The rule is...., if you're at or below the minimum speed limit, you are required by law to use your 4 way flashers.
Use your 4 ways in fog if you feel you're moving slower than other traffic, that's why they call them warning lights, to let others know you may be a hazard. -
Also, not every truck is wired to flash the brake lights like somebody implied.
