Correct answer
- CSí.Yes.
Fog sharply reduces visibility. Sometimes it even makes it impossible to keep driving, even with good lights. In this case, driving below the minimum speed is justified, because we must always adapt our speed to the field of vision we have, so that we can stop our vehicle within it if anything unexpected happens.
