My personal rules for safe driving:

1. Always keep your distance from the vehicle ahead
2. Always brake or accelerate in a straight line
3. Always and always stop at a junction or roundabout before pulling out

While Driving no Alcohol

Drinking and driving is not cool. It’s the stupidest way of putting your life in danger. If you are someone that cannot keep your hands off alcohol, book a driver on demand and enjoy the booze and the drive! Dont Play with your life, Its not cool!

I ran into this dense fog out of nowhere in a plain area, at 7pm in summer. A good friend of mine identified it as Radiation Fog which occurs after sunset, clear sky without any clouds. Needless to say, it scared the hell out of me and I almost came to a full stop due to zero visibility (dashcam at least picked up white lines on the road). Sharing the clip from my dashcam, looking forward to feedback/advise on handling such situations to fellow forum members.
