This from Paul Carter, who given the weather warning for more fog, shares this timely reminder Ed
I drove today from Niton to Newport and most of the south of the Island was shrouded in fog. I would guess visibility was perhaps 150 metres.
Yet I encountered numerous vehicles not using headlights – indeed some had no lights at all.
Please…it’s the law to use headlights in low visibility. Sidelights are not correct.
And if people are relying on Daytime Running Lights – remember they do not light the rear of your vehicle.
