Autumn fog on roads: when to use fog lights?

In autumn, fog appears especially in early morning near rivers and meadows, reducing visibility and lengthening braking distance on wet surfaces. Many drivers wrongly use front fog lights in any fog, which blinds other road users instead of improving safety. Regulations permit front fog lights only when visibility is below 50 m, and rear fog lights only when visibility is restricted and threatens safety.
