Fog is white, so really you could use any colour headlamp instead of white and be able to see better than using the normal white headlamps. It has to do with the light bouncing around and into and through the fog. Yellow is easier to see and easier on the eyes than, say, red or blue or green. Does that help you?
Because of the longer wave length of yellow light. Scattering of light from small particles (i.e. the sort you get in fog) is dependent on frequency. Higher frequencies are scattered more; longer wavelengths are scattered less. Putting a yellow filter on a white light eliminates the highly scattered blue and violet frequencies.
Fog can reduce visibility, making it harder for drivers to see other vehicles, pedestrians, or road signs. The moisture in fog can also make the road surface slippery, reducing traction and increasing the risk of accidents. Drivers should slow down, use their headlights, and maintain a safe following distance in foggy conditions.
headlights on low beam to improve visibility for yourself and other drivers. Make sure to leave extra space between you and the vehicle in front of you and refrain from using high beams as they can create glare and reduce visibility. Additionally, be cautious when changing lanes or making turns to avoid any sudden maneuvers.
Advection fog results when moist air moved across a cold surface. When moving across a cold surface, the air is cooled to its dew point.
Foggy is the adjective of fog.
Low beam headlights and fog lights if the vehicle has fog lights.
Fog lights. Headlights and hi beams can make foggy conditions at night much worse because their light tend to illuminate the fog directly in front of your vehicle. Because Fog lights are much lower on the front of your vehicle don't cause this problem and you can see a bit futher. the fog lights
fog lights are not always yellow.... i have no answer to your ? but i can tell you as a mechanic that all fog lights are not yellow and do not need to be.... all a fog light is, is a light placed lower on your vehicle so the light is not reflected into your face when it is foggy.... look in your local laws but in California if it is foggy and your vehicle is equipped with DOT fog light you do not have to use your regular head lights in a foggy situation... you do however have to turn on your running lights
Fog lights are only accessable when headlights are on; once headlights are on, pull shaft/stalk out to turn on fog lights.
Use low-beam headlights. When visibility is restricted, a driver's natural tendency is to activate the high-beam headlights. When driving in fog, this further impairs visibility because the high-beam illumination reflects off of the fog and back at your vehicle.
the light doesnt go through the fog
Yellow Fog was created in 1986.

To turn on the fog lights in a 2015 Ford Explorer, first, ensure the vehicle is in the "On" or "Run" position. Locate the fog light switch on the headlight control dial, which is usually found on the left side of the steering wheel. Turn the dial to the right past the headlight setting to activate the fog lights. You may also need to have the headlights on for the fog lights to work, depending on your vehicle's settings.
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WORK You need several things: -The headlights with fog lights in them (aftermarket or stock replacements). -The Euro switch or equivalent with fog light switch (audi also makes these). -The relay, fuse for the circuit, wires and a black loom to keep the wires neat. -look up a basic diagram on how to wire a vehicle fog lamp.(http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/relay.htm) -Install above
use your low bean headlights
Just at sundown, or in fog and rain.
