My commute would be 42 miles one way but I only have to make 2 trips per week. Not bad.
The drawback is a five mile stretch of highway, 55mph, no shoulder, early morning (dark), and foggy in the winter. It doesn't get that cold here. The poor visibility in the early morning and then the fog make me apprehensive.
When the fog is really bad, I can see the distance between two telephone poles, sometimes a little further.
My question is will the other driver see me in these conditions, provided I have adequate lighting. As most readers here already know when the weather gets bad and visibility drops, most people drive faster and many aren't even paying attention.
I'd love to hear suggestions, thoughts, or comments.
Much appreciated,
KS
