So, I witnessed a truck in front of me almost drive off the road....
Came up over Mt. Weather, notorious for fog, and this guy in front of me got over into the turn lane, but didn't know it????
Just something I thought everyone knew and thought I'd pass along if you don't. If you come up over a hill and hit nasty, dense fog, or if you are just riding in fog in general:
1) Slow down....
2) Follow the middle line/reflectors, not the right edge line ('cause it might be a turn lane!).
And, on riding skills, if you see a car coming from the other direction with really bright lights, don't close you eyes (ha, just kidding), don't stare at them, look down and to the right of the road, not straight down, but not up at the oncoming car. You'll still see the car in your peripheral, you'll still have your eye's on the road, but you won't get blinded.
