Reduced Visibility

Reduced visibility is defined as: rain, snow, fog, dust

When driving in reduced visibility, the posted speed limit is not the correct speed limit to travel. The correct speed limit is typically 10 mph less than the posted limit. Driving the posted speed limit can result in a speeding ticket. Pay attention. Also, do not tailgate in these conditions, unless you want to meet your fellow driver the hard way.

Also, when travelling in these conditions, at reduced speeds, use your 4 ways, they will increase your visibility to other vehicles on the road.

 

I don't pay attention to the speed limit in adverse conditions I drive whatever I feel the most comfortable at.

 

It's that time of year. I hate really dense fog worse than snow/ice.

 

Sorry bud, but it's illegal in most jurisdictions to drive with your hazards on.

I can't stand it when 4-wheelers do this crap, and now you want so-called professional drivers to do it too??!?

I think Florida has signs posted do not use flashers in the rain

 

I agree. 4-ways should only be used if you're stopped or potentially coming to a stop. Whether on the shoulder or in the road, 4-ways should mean stopped.

If you're in dense fog or dust, regular lights should be sufficient if moving. Nobody should be traveling so fast in such conditions that they can't see regular running lights in time to adjust. And at least if you see regular lights, you should be sure it is moving, and not stopped.

 

The OP is rather tame. Can't agree on the flasher either.

We drive until it's white out. That means even at 5mph, you can't see. Don't even think about driving 10mph below. Try a bunch below. Well... before you get to white out.

Flashers are far brighter than running lights. They are a big beacon of caution to the rear of the vehicle. I appreciate it. Others appreciate it. Gives extra strong warning farthest back you can, of definite problems.
Florida? If it snows in Florida. You know hell has frozen over and quit driving.

 

Guess you missed my post...it ain't just Florida

I didn't miss anything. Somebody mentioned Florida.

 

Oh, and it has snowed in Florida....several times.
Even had flurries as far south as Ft. Lauderdale in the late 70's.
