Must read

Along with many parts of England the Met Office has issued a yellow warning until 9am.

It means slower journey times with delays to bus and train services are possible and there is a chance of delays or cancellations to flights.

Foggy conditions can make it difficult to see the road ahead, be prepared for this by following these simple steps:

Make sure you know where you fog light switch is before you set off.

Keep a bigger distance between you and the car in front.

Be prepared for a sudden bank of fog or drifting, patchy fog.

Check your mirrors and slow down before entering fog.

Use fog lights when visibility drops below 100 metres, which is roughly the length of a football pitch.

Don’t use full beam as fog reflects the light back. 

Once the fog has lifted switch off your fog lights.
