I remember seeing a story on 20/20 years ago.....Fog makes drivers think they're going slower than they actually are, and in fog, the driver unconsciously goes faster, but, because it is foggy, they think they are being more alert by not taking their eyes off the road, i.e. not looking at the speedo. So by the time they stumble onto trouble, not only is the visibility reduced, they're going a heck of a lot faster than they thought, 20 mph or more over if I recall.
