Experts advise that, in case of being in an area with dense fog, drivers should reduce speed, use low beams or fog lights, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles.

The combination of humidity and cool temperatures during the early morning favors this type of phenomenon, which can persist until sunrise in some areas of the island.
